The Republic of Borby is a large, socially progressive nation, remarkable for its burgeoning kiwi population. The hard-working, democratic population of 198 million Borbyians are either ruled by a sleek, efficient government or a conglomerate of multinational corporations; it's difficult to tell which.

The relatively small, pro-business government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Education. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 13.2%.

The very strong Borbyian economy, worth 9.42 trillion bitcoins a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Basket Weaving industry, with significant contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Woodchip Exports, and Cheese Exports. Average income is 47,565 bitcoins, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 152,988 per year while the poor average 11,201, a ratio of 13.7 to 1.

Armed war-criminals gain asylum if deemed 'fabulous' enough, the latest Harry Potter book is a bestseller, and advertisements read like science journal articles complete with extensive references. Crime is a problem. Borby's national animal is the kiwi, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Borby is ranked 263,226^th in the world and 8^th in The Math classroom for Largest Governments, scoring 8.12 on the Bureaucratic Comprehensiveness Rating Scale Index.
