The Pallid Lady of Sibelyx is a colossal, efficient nation, notable for its prohibition of alcohol, infamous sell-swords, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate, cynical population of 4.401 billion Sibelyxians 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, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Defense, and Law & Order. The average income tax rate is 55.6%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The thriving Sibelyxian economy, worth 345 trillion pesos a year, is led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Automobile Manufacturing, and Woodchip Exports. Black market activity is notable. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 78,466 pesos, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.5 times as much as the poorest.

Arms manufacturing has been put at an arm's length, no one born in Sibelyx can fix a leaky faucet, the number of students attending university has reached a record high, and golden statues of dolphins line the memorial avenues of the Funerary District. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Sibelyx's national animal is the dolphin, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans.

Sibelyx is ranked 36,969^th in the world and 1^st in Q102 for Most Compassionate Citizens, scoring 50 on the Kitten Softness Rating.
