The Colony of Worker bee 4 is a colossal, efficient nation, notable for its soft-spoken computers, compulsory military service, and punitive income tax rates. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless, devout population of 9.029 billion Worker bee 4ians are ruled with an iron fist by the dictatorship government, which ensures that no-one outside the party gets too rich. In their personal lives, however, citizens are relatively unoppressed; it remains to be seen whether this is because the government genuinely cares about its people, or if it hasn't gotten around to stamping out civil rights yet.
The medium-sized, corrupt, socially-minded, well-organized government prioritizes Defense, with Education, Industry, and Law & Order also on the agenda, while Welfare receives no funds. The average income tax rate is 50.7%, and even higher for the wealthy.
The all-consuming Worker bee 4ian economy, worth a remarkable 1,159 trillion honeys a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is a large, well-organized, fairly diversified black market in Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, Tourism, and Beef-Based Agriculture. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is an impressive 128,414 honeys, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.
Worker bee 4 is increasingly belligerent on the international stage, skateboarding is punishable by heavy fines, cowboys often wear wolfskin jackets to the saloon, and young adults still believe that bee larvaes deliver newborns to expecting parents. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Worker bee 4's national animal is the bee larvae, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.
Worker bee 4 is ranked 127,679th in the world and 14th in Bee hive for Most Stationary, with 264.32012250168 days.
