The Germanic Democracy of Belned is a titanic, efficient nation, ruled by None with an even hand, and notable for its rampant corporate plagiarism, free-roaming dinosaurs, and otherworldly petting zoo. The compassionate population of 13.303 billion Belnedians have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The large, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Healthcare, Education, and Defense. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of New-Antwerp. The average income tax rate is 78.9%.

The frighteningly efficient Belnedian economy, worth a remarkable 1,868 trillion Crown franks a year, is led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Arms Manufacturing, and Book Publishing. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an impressive 140,449 Crown franks, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.3 times as much as the poorest.

Youth rights demonstrations often end in vicious snowball fights, bridge salesmen line up for blocks to make their cases at None's office, clothing with a scarlet S is popular among repentant body shamers, and girl scouts are forced to bake their own cookies. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Belned's national animal is the bear, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Unreligious.

Belned is ranked 24,062^nd in the world and 1,336^th in Osiris for Safest, scoring 111.55 on the Bubble-Rapp Safety Rating.
