The Military Republic of Benese is a massive, efficient nation, ruled by Agent Winbuntu with an iron fist, and renowned for its rum-swilling pirates, anti-smoking policies, and smutty television. The compassionate, cynical, devout population of 2.98 billion Beneseans are ruled with an iron fist by the dictatorship government, which ensures that no-one outside the party gets too rich. In their personal lives, however, citizens are relatively unoppressed; it remains to be seen whether this is because the government genuinely cares about its people, or if it hasn't gotten around to stamping out civil rights yet.

The large, corrupt government is primarily concerned with Defense, although Administration, Industry, and Education are also considered important. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Benese city. The average income tax rate is 82.9%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Benesean economy, worth 441 trillion kronor a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is an enormous, deeply entrenched, quite specialized black market in Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, Tourism, and Book Publishing. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is an impressive 148,291 kronor, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The military conducts 'training exercises' in prisons, children as young as twelve are conscripted into the armed forces, rebuilding efforts for a recently destroyed cathedral aren't expected to be completed for another century, and pranking is an art form. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Benese's national animal is the dolphin, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans, and its national religion is Judaism and Islam.

Benese is ranked 301,015th in the world and 4,933rd in the South Pacific for Most Secular, with 4.1 Atheism Rate.
