“Black Opales are the most precious gemstones”

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

The Precious Gemnation of Bharczlilhiaz is a gargantuan, socially progressive nation, ruled by Catarina Darklight with a fair hand, and remarkable for its daily referendums, avant-garde cinema, and irreverence towards religion. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful population of 10.584 billion Bharczlilhiazians are free to do what they want with their own bodies, and vote for whomever they like in elections; if they go into business, however, they are regulated to within an inch of their lives.

The enormous, liberal, socially-minded, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Environment, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Mysticia. The income tax rate is 100%.

The frighteningly efficient Bharczlilhiazian economy, worth a remarkable 3,681 trillion Black Opals a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is quite specialized, is led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism and Book Publishing. Average income is an amazing 347,874 Black Opals, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The nation grinds to a halt for afternoon tea, an increasing percentage of the population's youth have homosexual parents, postcards from Bharczlilhiazian driving test centres are popular souvenirs, and the nation excels at displacement. Crime is totally unknown. Bharczlilhiaz's national animal is the Squirrel, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Cult of Books.

Bharczlilhiaz is ranked 2,516^th in the world and 23^rd in Jeinnhezslhaunia for Most Scientifically Advanced, scoring 748.12 on the Kurzweil Singularity Index.
