The Republic of BASEBALL RULES 12 is a colossal, safe nation, notable for its avant-garde cinema and restrictive gun laws. The quiet, industrious population of 4.039 billion BASEBALL RULES 12ians are highly moralistic and fiercely conservative, in the sense that they tend to believe most things should be outlawed.

Black market activity is notable. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 35,632 Baseballs, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.5 times as much as the poorest.

Crime, especially youth-related, is almost non-existent, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. BASEBALL RULES 12's national animal is the dog, which can occasionally be seen sifting through garbage in the nation's cities.
