The Republic of Byte OOIIIIOI is a huge, environmentally stunning nation, renowned for its public floggings, compulsory military service, and ban on automobiles. The quiet, industrious population of 573 million Byte OOIIIIOIians are highly moralistic and fiercely conservative, in the sense that they tend to believe most things should be outlawed. People who have good jobs and work quietly at them are lauded; others are viewed with suspicion.

The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Healthcare, and Law & Order. The average income tax rate is 26.1%.

The Byte OOIIIIOIian economy, worth 28.5 trillion Cat Pictureses a year, is led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Woodchip Exports, Door-to-door Insurance Sales, and Cheese Exports. Black market activity is notable. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 49,700 Cat Pictureses, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 4.1 times as much as the poorest.

The nationalised Arms Manufacturing Industry is not interested in making weapons, restaurateurs put a lot of effort into persuading customers to accept wafer-thin mints, politicians stage photo ops featuring barely functional fighter jets, and young soldiers are shocked to discover there are no 'safe spaces' on a battlefield. Crime, especially youth-related, is almost non-existent, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Byte OOIIIIOI's national animal is the Cat, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Byte OOIIIIOI is ranked 162,127^th in the world and 7,510^th in Balder for Most Advanced Public Education, scoring 1,116.7 on the Edu-tellignce® Test Score.
