Overview • Policies • People • Government • Economy • Rank • Trend • Cards

The Federal Republic of Balakana is a colossal, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Barack Obama with a fair hand, and renowned for its rum-swilling pirates, national health service, and multi-spousal wedding ceremonies. The compassionate, hard-working, democratic population of 2.975 billion Balakanans hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.

The medium-sized, liberal, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Jusikuchi. The average income tax rate is 66.8%.

The frighteningly efficient Balakanese economy, worth 371 trillion Balakanese Dollars a year, is led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Retail, and Book Publishing. Average income is an impressive 124,931 Balakanese Dollars, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.4 times as much as the poorest.

Jusikuchi's main city thoroughfare has been blocked by a row of leyland cypresses that mysteriously appeared overnight, sick Balakanans are hair today and gone tomorrow, Barack Obama has killer fashion sense, and the nation's endangered species are no longer endangered. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Balakana's national animal is the Cougar, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Obamism.

Balakana is ranked 12,604^th in the world and 1^st in Methanium for Most Developed, scoring 89.25 on the Human Development Index.
