The Republic of Republica Babia is a very large, efficient nation, notable for its barren, inhospitable landscape. The hard-working, democratic population of 299 million Republica Babians are either ruled by a sleek, efficient government or a conglomerate of multinational corporations; it's difficult to tell which.

The tiny, pro-business government juggles the competing demands of Education, Defense, and Law & Order. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 6.2%.

The thriving Republica Babian economy, worth 21.1 trillion pesos a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is broadly diversified and led by the Retail industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Basket Weaving, and Door-to-door Insurance Sales. Average income is 70,657 pesos, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 250,106 per year while the poor average 14,412, a ratio of 17.4 to 1.

Surveillance cameras are banned, the latest Harry Potter book is a bestseller, the government's fruit business reeks of rotting produce and corruption, and all citizens are solely referenced by their allocated identity number. Crime is a problem, with the police force struggling against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. Republica Babia's national animal is the squirrel, which can occasionally be seen sifting through garbage in the nation's cities.

Republica Babia is ranked 11,802^nd in the world and 31^st in Starlight for Largest Insurance Industry, scoring 5,631.67 on the Risk Expulsion Effectiveness Rating.
