The Nomadic Peoples of Bothell Island is a mammoth, cultured nation, remarkable for its avant-garde cinema, complete lack of prisons, and hatred of cheese. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless population of 9.428 billion Bothell Islandians 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, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Administration, and Education. The average income tax rate is 78.0%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Bothell Islandian economy, worth a remarkable 1,417 trillion baseballs 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 an enormous, deeply entrenched, quite specialized black market in Arms Manufacturing, Tourism, Trout Farming, and Uranium Mining. 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 an impressive 150,301 baseballs, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.2 times as much as the poorest.

Fat taxes on red meat has left the beef industry extra lean, hostage-takers offer loyalty scheme points for prompt payment, foreign musicians that Leader dislikes are turned away at the border, and windows in Bothell Island City don't have much of a view. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Bothell Island's national animal is the Rabbit, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.
