The Democratic Republic of Bharathvarsh is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by Leader with an even hand, and remarkable for its daily referendums, national health service, and restrictive gun laws. The hard-nosed, humorless population of 18.24 billion Bharathvasis are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The medium-sized, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Education, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Bharathvarsh City. The average income tax rate is 84.4%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Bharathvarshian economy, worth a remarkable 3,587 trillion rupees a year, is dominated by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Tourism, and Book Publishing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 196,665 rupees, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

People stand their fridges back-to-front to benefit from the free heating, every product goes through extensive safety-testing by the government, every diamond ring sold is accompanied by a twenty-five page analysis and a waiver, and grandiose stage parents insist superyachts and private cinemas are children's basic needs. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Bharathvarsh's national animal is the lion, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Bharathvarsh is ranked 11,765^th in the world and 365^th in The North Pacific for Highest Average Incomes, with 196,665.46 Standard Monetary Units.
