The Kingdom of The bts is a large, safe nation, renowned for its barren, inhospitable landscape, compulsory military service, and irreverence towards religion. The hard-nosed, democratic population of 121 million btsians are known throughout the region for their efficiency and work ethic, as well as their general suspicion of leisure.
The relatively small government juggles the competing demands of Welfare, Education, and Defense. The average income tax rate is 12.9%.
The btsian economy, worth 5.97 trillion dollars a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Uranium Mining, Cheese Exports, and Basket Weaving. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 49,365 dollars, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.2 times as much as the poorest.
Open-casket funerals are avoided at all cost, employees are told they can avoid traffic jams by starting work at 4 AM, colleges adhere to rigid ethnic quotas for admissions, and interviewees for teaching jobs are waterboarded to "reveal undesirable histories". Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. The bts's national animal is the prati and jacki, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.
The bts is ranked 36,628th in the world and 1st in Marisia for Largest Cheese Export Sector, scoring 5,068.96 on the Mozzarella Productivity Index.
