The People's Republic of Bibliophilius is a colossal, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Bibliogogue with a fair hand, and renowned for its daily referendums, punitive income tax rates, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful population of 8.52 billion Bibliophilians hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.

The enormous, liberal government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Bibliopolis. The average income tax rate is 97.6%.

The frighteningly efficient Bibliophilian economy, worth a remarkable 1,548 trillion Credits 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 181,745 Credits, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Children crying over dropped ice creams are offered high doses of experimental antidepressants, many friends and relatives of Bibliogogue have been given ambassador jobs in tropical island nations, people reciting Shakespeare have become a common sight, and one does not simply walk into the tundra. Crime is totally unknown. Bibliophilius's national animal is the Goat, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Bibliophilius is ranked 286,221^st in the world and 1,363^rd in The Communist Bloc for Most Patriotic, with 0.22 flags saluted per person per day.
