The Bow and Arrow Pub

The Republic of The Bow and Arrow Pub is a titanic, environmentally stunning nation, renowned for its smutty television, ban on automobiles, and irreverence towards religion. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful population of 11.839 billion Publicans are free to do what they want with their own bodies, and vote for whomever they like in elections; if they go into business, however, they are regulated to within an inch of their lives.

The enormous, liberal, socially-minded, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Environment. The average income tax rate is 95.1%.

The frighteningly efficient Bow and Arrow Pubian economy, worth a remarkable 1,731 trillion dollars a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is quite specialized, is led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing, Tourism, and Beef-Based Agriculture. Average income is an impressive 146,263 dollars, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Rugby players that knock each other over always stop to make sure the other fellow is okay, major cities shut down as their local sports team takes to the field every day, if someone says there's plenty of living space in The Bow and Arrow Pub they're lyin', and the clock on unfettered access to social media is ticking. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. The Bow and Arrow Pub's national animal is the tiger, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

The Bow and Arrow Pub is ranked 302,970th in the world and 8th in Ghosts of Harvard Square for Largest Insurance Industry, scoring -14.15 on the Risk Expulsion Effectiveness Rating.
