The Kingdom of Bazolivan is a mid-sized, safe nation, remarkable for its compulsory military service and irreverence towards religion. The democratic population of 92 million Bazolivanians 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 Welfare, Law & Order, and Defense. The average income tax rate is 32.0%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The sizeable but inefficient Bazolivanian economy, worth 3.36 trillion Gaziles a year, is quite specialized and mostly made up of the Trout Farming industry, with significant contributions from Basket Weaving, Pizza Delivery, and Door-to-door Insurance Sales. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 36,530 Gaziles, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.2 times as much as the poorest.

Married couples must call each other "darling" or risk a fine, surveillance cameras are banned, engineers ask liberal arts majors "Do you want fries with that?", and organ donation rates have hit a new low. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Bazolivan's national animal is the Tiger, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Bazolivan is ranked 35,568th in the world and 10th in the Obsidian Highlands for Least Corrupt Governments, with 94 percentage of bribes refused.
