The Colony of Queen bee 2020 is a colossal, efficient nation, remarkable for its ritual sacrifices, parental licensing program, and ubiquitous missile silos. The hard-nosed, humorless, devout population of 9.152 billion Queen bee 2020ians are prohibited from doing almost everything except voting, which they do timidly and conservatively.
The medium-sized, corrupt, moralistic, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Industry. The average income tax rate is 45.8%, but much higher for the wealthy.
The powerhouse Queen bee 2020ian economy, worth a remarkable 1,235 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, Trout Farming, 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 134,991 honeys, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.0 times as much as the poorest.
Escaped birthday balloons are torpedoed out of the sky, bins outnumber trees in city parks, journalists giggle uncontrollably while reporting the nation's drug bonfires, and the nation is committed to nuclear rearmament.

Queen bee 2020's national animal is the bee, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.
