The Sultanate of Bijouver is a massive, safe nation, renowned for its barren, inhospitable landscape, ubiquitous missile silos, and stringent health and safety legislation. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic, devout population of 1.52 billion Bijouverians enjoy a sensible mix of personal and economic freedoms, while the political process is open and the people's right to vote held sacrosanct.
The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Education, and Industry. The average income tax rate is 43.9%.
The frighteningly efficient Bijouverian economy, worth 162 trillion Berries a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Retail, and Book Publishing. Black market activity is notable. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an impressive 107,083 Berries, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 4.2 times as much as the poorest.
Cleaners are very careful not to bump into the big red button on Leader's desk, the automotive industry soaks up huge government handouts, business meetings across the country are interrupted by the sound of squeaking whoopee-cushions, and a major religion has been named as Bijouver's national religion. Crime is totally unknown. Bijouver's national animal is the Turtle, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to heavy metals seepage into national waterways.
Bijouver is ranked 47,531st in the world and 9th in Benigtopia for Most Patriotic, with 28.64 flags saluted per person per day.
