The Terrible Swift Sword of Hilo Bay is a gargantuan, cultured nation, notable for its ubiquitous missile silos, daily referendums, and hatred of cheese. The hard-nosed, devout population of 16.64 billion Hilo Bayians have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The relatively small government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Education, and Defense. The average income tax rate is 12.3%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The Hilo Bayian economy, worth 618 trillion $$s a year, is quite specialized and led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Basket Weaving, Woodchip Exports, and Beef-Based Agriculture. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 37,184 $$s, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Artists regularly face criminal charges and art-burning parties are common, reports of arson have doubled since the introduction of a privatised fire protection service, elementary school students are required to master Bach's Chaconne in D before graduation, and when shaking hands with foreign leaders Leader wears an armoured gauntlet. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Hilo Bay's national animal is the Death's-head hawkmoth, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to toxic air pollution.

Hilo Bay is ranked 7,030th in the world and 1st in Third Rome for Most Stationary, with 2,791.86145626308 days.
