The Bangtan Nation of Namkada is a colossal, socially progressive nation, ruled by Zoid The Rebel with an even hand, and renowned for its anti-smoking policies, punitive income tax rates, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, cheerful population of 7.05 billion Namkadans enjoy extensive civil rights and enjoy a level of social equality free from the usual accompanying government corruption.

The large, liberal, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Education, Healthcare, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Comet Town. The average income tax rate is 93.5%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Namkadan economy, worth a remarkable 1,060 trillion Constellations a year, is led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Basket Weaving. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 150,387 Constellations, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Scoutmasters debate whether luxury log cabins defeat the purpose of camping, Namkada successfully hosted the Suns Reach Olympics, the media have begun calling the government treasury "Zoid The Rebel's stash", and employers are finding it hard to screen candidates now that everyone gets A grades in their exams. Crime is totally unknown. Namkada's national animal is the Dove, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Bangtanism.

Namkada is ranked 73,459^th in the world and 3^rd in Suns Reach for Most Corrupt Governments, with 23.75 kickbacks per hour.
