The Republic of Psyleba is a mid-sized, genial nation, remarkable for its state-planned economy, punitive income tax rates, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, democratic, devout population of 77 million Psylebans, 73 million of whom are zombies, are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The large, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Welfare, Education, and Law & Order. The average income tax rate is 52.8%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The sizeable but underdeveloped Psyleban economy, worth 7.02 trillion pounds a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector is led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Uranium Mining, Trout Farming, and Furniture Restoration. Average income is 30,383 pounds, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Going on a diet invalidates your passport, all major public areas are watched by police surveillance cameras, euthanasia is illegal, and organ donation is compulsory. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Psyleba's national animal is the unicorn, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Psyleba is ranked 45,005^th in the world and 144^th in Starlight for Highest Foreign Aid Spending, scoring 759.36 on the Clooney Contribution Index.
