The Old colony of Bean territory is a huge, environmentally stunning nation, notable for its complete lack of prisons, pith helmet sales, and irreverence towards religion. The hard-nosed, hard-working population of 640 million bean territoryians are highly moralistic and fiercely conservative, in the sense that they tend to believe most things should be outlawed. People who have good jobs and work quietly at them are lauded; others are viewed with suspicion.
The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Education, Defense, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Beanstopia. The average income tax rate is 30.0%.
The thriving Bean territoryian economy, worth 56.0 trillion seeds a year, is broadly diversified and dominated by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Furniture Restoration, Cheese Exports, and Woodchip Exports. Black market activity is notable. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 87,567 seeds, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 4.2 times as much as the poorest.
Children listen incredulously when their grandparents explain what a "running river" is, a mayoral candidate backed by Leader recently won re-election with 110% of the vote, stone wrist watches that weigh 20lb are the latest trend, and midnight raids drag couples from their homes in the name of decency. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Bean territory's national animal is the bean, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.
Bean territory is ranked 297,801st in the world and 271st in The Region That Has No Big Banks for Most Patriotic, with 0.84 flags saluted per person per day.
