The United Communes of Bibu is a colossal, efficient nation, ruled by The High Council of Councils with a fair hand, and remarkable for its pith helmet sales, otherworldly petting zoo, and restrictive gun laws. The compassionate, democratic population of 3.283 billion socialists 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 large, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Commune of Bibu. The average income tax rate is 92.0%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient socialist economy, worth 500 trillion Units a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector is dominated by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Beef-Based Agriculture. Average income is an impressive 152,474 Units, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Public footpaths are being slowly eroded by the burgeoning number of ramblers, the national anthem is a rather effective sleeping aid, Socialist watches are often the only thing to survive a disaster intact, and being The High Council of Councils has been voted one of the top ten most dangerous jobs. Crime is totally unknown. Bibu's national animal is the raccoon, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Bibu is ranked 94,482^nd in the world and 261^st in The Communist Bloc for Most Advanced Defense Forces, scoring 2,777.55 on the Total War Preparedness Rating.
