The Colony of The Kirbys is a large, cultured nation, remarkable for its state-planned economy, compulsory vegetarianism, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate population of 194 million Kirbys are prohibited from doing almost everything except voting, which they do timidly and conservatively.

The large, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Education, and Law & Order. The average income tax rate is 63.9%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The sizeable but underdeveloped Kirby economy, worth 6.22 trillion Coins a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector is led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Basket Weaving, Uranium Mining, and Tourism. Average income is 32,074 Coins, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Military spending recently hit a new high, calling dibs is an unalienable right, judicial torture is outsourced overseas, and the intelligence community is playing 4-D chess with an imaginary spy network. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. The Kirbys's national animal is the Awoofy, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

The Kirbys is ranked 171,189^th in the world and 11^th in Terra Pacifican Chill Region for Least Corrupt Governments, with 92.92 percentage of bribes refused.
