The Democratic Empire of Bulvaria is a massive, efficient nation, ruled by Garsoni IV with an iron fist, and notable for its compulsory military service, national health service, and stringent health and safety legislation. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical population of 2.756 billion Bulvarians 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 medium-sized, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Education, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Bul. The average income tax rate is 48.0%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Bulvarian economy, worth 255 trillion Bulvarian Dollars a year, is led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Beef-Based Agriculture, Arms Manufacturing, and Automobile Manufacturing. Black market activity is frequent. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 92,676 Bulvarian Dollars, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.0 times as much as the poorest.

Birdsong in the mountains has to be loud enough to drown out nearby jackhammers, building a phallus out of Minecraft blocks counts as indecent exposure, the government regrets to say that it is forced to make cuts to citizens, and journalists giggle uncontrollably while reporting the nation's drug bonfires. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Bulvaria's national animal is the Bulvarian Mongoose, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Bulvaria is ranked 56,292^nd in the world and 3,173^rd in Lazarus for Most Patriotic, with 24.92 flags saluted per person per day.
