The Republic of Bueszqostan is a titanic, orderly nation, ruled by Bueszqo with an iron fist, and notable for its museums and concert halls, avowedly heterosexual populace, and pith helmet sales. The hard-nosed, cynical, devout population of 12.628 billion Bueszqostanians are ruled by a mostly-benevolent dictator, who grants the populace the freedom to live their own lives but watches carefully for anyone to slip up.

The large, corrupt, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Healthcare, and Defense. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Las Ckebe. The average income tax rate is 77.1%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Bueszqostanian economy, worth a remarkable 1,359 trillion Nishams a year, is fairly diversified and dominated by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing, Information Technology, and Arms Manufacturing. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an impressive 107,682 Nishams, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Visiting the best Bueszqostanian restaurants requires keeping a visa on file, government agents stalk the aisles of grocery stores for out-of-stock medications, government-run screening operations remove embryos with severe genetic disorders, and public footpaths are being slowly eroded by the burgeoning number of ramblers. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Bueszqostan's national animal is the Killer Fish, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans.

Bueszqostan is ranked 23,344^th in the world and 632^nd in The North Pacific for Most Developed, scoring 85.7 on the Human Development Index.
