The Holy Cultural Districts of The Bikini Bottom Republic is a colossal, cultured nation, ruled by Squidina Star with an even hand, and remarkable for its museums and concert halls, smutty television, and daily referendums. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful, devout population of 8.659 billion Bininilandese enjoy extensive civil rights and enjoy a level of social equality free from the usual accompanying government corruption.

The large, liberal, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Environment. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Binini Bottóm. The average income tax rate is 99.2%.

The frighteningly efficient Bininiese economy, worth a remarkable 1,966 trillion Bininiese Pounds a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is quite specialized, is led by the Book Publishing industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Information Technology, and Arms Manufacturing. Average income is an amazing 227,056 Bininiese Pounds, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Every week is blindness awareness week, shady doctors seem to have impeccable records, the government is pouring money into 'Operation Enduring Democracy', and bus ads propagandize causes ranging from sexual revolution to religious pogroms. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. The Bikini Bottom Republic's national animal is the Jellyfish, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans, and its national religion is Bininiese Catholicism.

The Bikini Bottom Republic is ranked 2,411^th in the world and 123^rd in The North Pacific for Most Beautiful Environments, with 3,357.3 pounds of wildlife per square mile.
