The People's Republic of Belerus is a mammoth, orderly nation, remarkable for its state-planned economy, irreverence towards religion, and restrictive gun laws. The cynical population of 8.898 billion Belerusians are ruled without fear or favor by a psychotic dictator, who outlaws just about everything and refers to the populace as "my little playthings."

The large, moralistic, socially-minded, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Healthcare. The average income tax rate is 45.5%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The sizeable but stagnant Belerusian economy, worth 86.5 trillion guilders a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is a slick, highly efficient, quite specialized black market in Trout Farming, Furniture Restoration, and Door-to-door Insurance Sales. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is 9,724 guilders, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Bins outnumber trees in city parks, scientists regularly clone human beings for research purposes, military spending recently hit a new high, and Harry Potter books are banned. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Belerus's national animal is the eagle, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Belerus is ranked 309,679th in the world and 4,121st in The catholic military orders for Highest Average Incomes, with 9,724.3 Standard Monetary Units.
