The Democratic Republic of Sigmabiber is a massive, socially progressive nation, renowned for its free-roaming dinosaurs, digital currency, and keen interest in outer space. The compassionate, democratic population of 1.042 billion Sigmabiberians 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, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Healthcare. The average income tax rate is 76.4%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Sigmabiberian economy, worth 104 trillion Credits a year, is quite specialized and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Beef-Based Agriculture, and Book Publishing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 99,821 Credits, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Rebuilding efforts for a recently destroyed cathedral aren't expected to be completed for another century, in life full of care there is no time to stop and stare, referenda can be called for any law at the request of at least one third of the voting population, and money grows on trees. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Sigmabiber's national animal is the Commrade bird, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Sigmabiber is ranked 12,309^th in the world and 48^th in Starlight for Most Eco-Friendly Governments, scoring 4,724.91 on the Dolphin Recycling Awareness Index.
