The Ricky Spanish Easter Egg of Shibutani is a gargantuan, orderly nation, ruled by Daniel with an iron fist, and notable for its ritual sacrifices, keen interest in outer space, and frequent executions. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, devout population of 13.478 billion Shibutanians are ruled by a mostly-benevolent dictator, who grants the populace the freedom to live their own lives but watches carefully for anyone to slip up.

The tiny, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Industry, Defense, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of MAYA. Income tax is unheard of.

The frighteningly efficient Shibutanian economy, worth a remarkable 5,728 trillion Bitcoins a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Retail, and Book Publishing. Black market activity is frequent. Average income is an amazing 425,019 Bitcoins, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 1,463,145 per year while the poor average 90,454, a ratio of 16.2 to 1.

Telling someone to 'break a leg' is considered a criminal inducement to self harm, Shibutani isn't what it used to be, pet owners make sure their dogs wear diapers, and after every storm there's an expensive government-funded rainbow. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. Shibutani's national animal is the cow, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Church of the Cosmic Skull.

Shibutani is ranked 2,260^th in the world and 50^th in The North Pacific for Largest Automobile Manufacturing Sector, scoring 10,812.57 on the Henry Ford Productivity Index.
