The Federalist Republic of United States of Belvaria is a colossal, cultured nation, ruled by President Robert Raymond with a fair hand, and remarkable for its public floggings, otherworldly petting zoo, and devotion to social welfare. The democratic population of 6.866 billion Belvarians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The large government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Healthcare, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Lexington. The average income tax rate is 78.4%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Belvarian economy, worth 857 trillion Belvns a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Book Publishing, Tourism, and Cheese Exports. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 124,877 Belvns, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The nation's museums are real penny-pinchers, the new airport at Mr. Giles' farm is panicking his sheep, carefully-staged grief is displayed by President Robert Raymond after national disasters, and the government regularly hires contractors to construct high rise apartments. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. United States of Belvaria's national animal is the Golden Eagle, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Abrahamics.

United States of Belvaria is ranked 16,841^st in the world and 412^th in the South Pacific for Most Scientifically Advanced, scoring 308.16 on the Kurzweil Singularity Index.
