The Teletubby Republic of The SB is a massive, genial nation, ruled by 小波 with an iron fist, and renowned for its prohibition of alcohol, rampant corporate plagiarism, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, cynical, humorless population of 1.858 billion teletubbies are ruled with an iron fist by the dictatorship government, which ensures that no-one outside the party gets too rich. In their personal lives, however, citizens are relatively unoppressed; it remains to be seen whether this is because the government genuinely cares about its people, or if it hasn't gotten around to stamping out civil rights yet.

The medium-sized, corrupt, socially-minded, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of teletuubyland. The average income tax rate is 66.7%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient teletubby economy, worth 233 trillion TubbyBucks a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is a slick, highly efficient, quite specialized black market in Information Technology, Arms Manufacturing, Beef-Based Agriculture, and Tourism. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is an impressive 125,704 TubbyBucks, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Colonial citizens are forced to sing the praise of the "Great Teletubby Liberator", the national water supply has entered detox, whipping posts and lashes have been transferred to the Historical Museum of teletubby Embarrassments, and police drones follow every suspected Peeping Tom. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. The SB's national animal is the rabbit, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is random religion.

The SB is ranked 76,343rd in the world and 8th in China Home for Safest, scoring 93.08 on the Bubble-Rapp Safety Rating.
