The Republic of Coolibeer is a gargantuan, socially progressive nation, renowned for its aversion to nipples, free-roaming dinosaurs, and multi-spousal wedding ceremonies. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic, cheerful population of 12.478 billion Coolibeerians are effectively ruled by a group of massive corporations, who run for political office and provide their well-off citizens with world-class goods and services. Their poorer citizens, however, are mostly starving to death while being urged to go out and get real jobs. The populace has reasonably extensive civil rights, although these are mostly aimed at allowing them to buy whatever they like.

The relatively small, corrupt, pro-business, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Education, Industry, and Administration. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 4.9%.

The frighteningly efficient Coolibeerian economy, worth a remarkable 4,733 trillion dolars a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Retail, and Book Publishing. Average income is an amazing 379,387 dolars, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 1,379,402 per year while the poor average 74,241, a ratio of 18.6 to 1.

Expensive lawyers are hired to defend citizens in court for public urination charges against their pets, the new 'Things We Stole From Other Countries' exhibition at the National Museum of Antiquities is a hit, veterans are directed into environmental cleanup operations, and economics is a shrinking field. Crime is totally unknown. Coolibeer's national animal is the hiena, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Coolibeer is ranked 1,921^st in the world and 68^th in Lazarus for Largest Publishing Industry, scoring 27,767.48 on the Bella Potter Productivity e-Index.
