The Ricky Spanish Easter Egg of Shibutani is a gargantuan, orderly nation, ruled by Daniel with an iron fist, and renowned for its pith helmet sales, public floggings, and otherworldly petting zoo. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, devout population of 13.533 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 5,743 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 424,390 Bitcoins, with the richest citizens earning 8.1 times as much as the poorest.

Awkward tourists are offered the 'unique experience' of rodeo clown, nations that kill a Shibutanian can expect a strongly worded letter, much of Shibutani's computer network is controlled by a rampant artificial intelligence, and diners regard burgers made from mechanically reclaimed cow protein as "proper meat". 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 249,875^th in the world and 5,552^nd in The North Pacific for Most Cheerful Citizens, with 45.24 Percentage Of Water Glasses Perceived Half-Full.
