The Space Bar of Agoraphobic is a gargantuan, safe nation, notable for its ubiquitous missile silos, digital currency, and pith helmet sales. The hard-nosed, devout population of 11.51 billion Agoraphobicians are highly moralistic and fiercely conservative, in the sense that they tend to believe most things should be outlawed. People who have good jobs and work quietly at them are lauded; others are viewed with suspicion.

The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Industry. The average income tax rate is 24.7%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The very strong Agoraphobician economy, worth 887 trillion bitcoins a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Woodchip Exports, and Information Technology. Black market activity is notable. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 77,097 bitcoins, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.0 times as much as the poorest.

The government extracts trade concessions from poor nations in exchange for humanitarian aid, the nation is experiencing a severe shortage of sporting events, condos feature wall-mounted cages containing endangered animals, and the government has enacted freedom of information. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Agoraphobic's national animal is the falcon.

Agoraphobic is ranked 27,378^th in the world and 4^th in Asia for Safest, scoring 110.37 on the Bubble-Rapp Safety Rating.
