The Shibatown of Shibaton is a colossal, environmentally stunning nation, remarkable for its avowedly heterosexual populace, daily referendums, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful, devout population of 4.556 billion Shiba love a good election, and the government gives them plenty of them. Universities tend to be full of students debating the merits of various civil and political rights, while businesses are tightly regulated and the wealthy viewed with suspicion.

The enormous, socially-minded, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Environment. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Capital City. The average income tax rate is 96.7%.

The frighteningly efficient Shiba economy, worth 667 trillion shibs a year, is highly specialized and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Book Publishing, Information Technology, and Basket Weaving. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 146,485 shibs, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Fraternities are rejoicing at government-subsidized partying, it's a jungle out there, diaper-wrapped falafel is a fan-favorite, and veteran cops reminisce over their heavy armor days. Crime is totally unknown. Shibaton's national animal is the Shiba Inu, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Catholicism.

Shibaton is ranked 2,706^th in the world and 2^nd in Kerbals of the North for Safest, scoring 138.29 on the Bubble-Rapp Safety Rating.
