The State of Changi Bay is a titanic, safe nation, ruled by the Governor with an iron fist, and renowned for its compulsory military service, irreverence towards religion, and restrictive gun laws. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical population of 17.419 billion Changi Bayians are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."

The large, moralistic, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Public Transport. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Central Heights. The average income tax rate is 44.7%.

The Changi Bayian economy, worth 665 trillion betales a year, is led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Furniture Restoration, Pizza Delivery, and Basket Weaving. Average income is 38,185 betales, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.7 times as much as the poorest.

Scientists regularly clone human beings for research purposes, all major public areas are watched by police surveillance cameras, Changi Bay has designated Central Heights as its capital city, and The Governor has just been declared ruler of Changi Bay in an international press conference. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force. Changi Bay's national animal is the deer.

Changi Bay is ranked 282,214^th in the world and 1^st in Changi Bay for Highest Disposable Incomes, with 21,116.78 Standard Monetary Units.
