The Principality of Bellestar is a massive, safe nation, notable for its museums and concert halls, compulsory military service, and infamous sell-swords. The compassionate, devout population of 2.667 billion Bellestarians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.
The enormous government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Healthcare. The average income tax rate is 70.1%, and even higher for the wealthy.
The thriving Bellestarian economy, worth 199 trillion Calistoes a year, is led by the Book Publishing industry, with major contributions from Basket Weaving, Information Technology, and Beef-Based Agriculture. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 74,920 Calistoes, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.
No one born in Bellestar can fix a leaky faucet, strict term limits have been applied to all elected offices, citizens recently voted in favour of declaring bubblewrap an 'abomination of nature', and the government has officially clarified that "wee on your hands to save time" does not count as proper hygiene. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Bellestar's national animal is the Wolf, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.
Bellestar is ranked 73,417th in the world and 473rd in Europe for Most Patriotic, with 19.09 flags saluted per person per day.
