The Republic of Bosdon is a massive, socially progressive nation, remarkable for its barren, inhospitable landscape and irreverence towards religion. The hard-nosed, hard-working population of 1.321 billion Bosdonians enjoy extensive civil freedoms, particularly in social issues, while business tends to be more regulated.

The medium-sized, liberal government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Healthcare. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 18.9%.

The strong Bosdonian economy, worth 54.4 trillion dollars a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Automobile Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Soda Sales, Information Technology, and Cheese Exports. Average income is 41,180 dollars, with the richest citizens earning 5.6 times as much as the poorest.

Military spending recently hit a new high, the tenet of free speech is held dear, the country's famous rainforests are being bulldozed by the mining industry, and police reduce their paperwork by refusing to arrest anyone. Crime is a problem. Bosdon's national animal is the eagle, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to toxic air pollution.

Bosdon is ranked 229,516^th in the world and 42^nd in Boston for Largest Black Market, with 291 billion Standard Monetary Units.
