The Republic of Nebiyar is a huge, genial nation, notable for its compulsory military service, irreverence towards religion, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate population of 374 million Nebiyarians have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The relatively small government juggles the competing demands of Welfare, Healthcare, and Education. The average income tax rate is 13.3%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The Nebiyarian economy, worth 19.7 trillion Yars a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Basket Weaving industry, with major contributions from Book Publishing, Automobile Manufacturing, and Gambling. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 52,613 Yars, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.2 times as much as the poorest.

The people consider response to rudeness to be an acceptable casus belli, schools offer a range of lessons in subjects as diverse as The Economics of Bullying for Lunch Money, Lynx is one of the most popular forenames in Nebiyar, and internet sites are legally unable to stop their users from posting pornography. Crime, especially youth-related, is almost non-existent. Nebiyar's national animal is the Lynx, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Nebiyar is ranked 164,342^nd in the world and 4,130^th in The North Pacific for Lowest Crime Rates, with 59.78 law-abiding acts per hour.
