The Jiving Jungle of Baloo Kingdom is a colossal, socially progressive nation, ruled by King Baloo von Bruinwald XIII with an even hand, and renowned for its rum-swilling pirates, zero percent divorce rate, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, devout population of 9.299 billion Balooites enjoy extensive civil rights and enjoy a level of social equality free from the usual accompanying government corruption.

The enormous, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Baloo Kingdom City. The average income tax rate is 97.0%.

The frighteningly efficient Balooite economy, worth a remarkable 1,360 trillion Baloocial Credits a year, is quite specialized and mostly made up of the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing, Furniture Restoration, and Information Technology. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 146,260 Baloocial Credits, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

It is illegal for police officers to carry out searches due to strict privacy laws, up to 40% of voters can finally read the issues they're deciding on, tourists from around the world come to visit the country's famous rainforests, and armed war-criminals gain asylum if deemed 'fabulous' enough. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Baloo Kingdom's national animal is the Sloth Bear, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Lutheran Christianity.

Baloo Kingdom is ranked 145,743rd in the world and 51st in Callista for Most Corrupt Governments, with 3.58 kickbacks per hour.
