The Republic of Bear Nation is a massive, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Pennywise with a fair hand, and remarkable for its museums and concert halls, ubiquitous missile silos, and digital currency. The compassionate, hard-working, democratic population of 3.294 billion Bear Nationians hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.

The relatively small government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Wrigley. The average income tax rate is 15.7%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Bear Nationian economy, worth 418 trillion Dollars a year, is led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Retail, and Book Publishing. Average income is an impressive 127,084 Dollars, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.8 times as much as the poorest.

The government puts forth the claim that harming young girls is wrong, many aides in Pennywise's office are known to be serial jaywalkers, the government is washing its hands of alleged corruption, and children gain their first sex education from reading the dictionary. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. Bear Nation's national animal is the Grizzly Bear, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Bear Nation is ranked 145,899^th in the world and 372^nd in 10000 Islands for Largest Gambling Industry, scoring 512.03 on the Kelly Criterion Productivity Index.
