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

The Republic of Bidenton is a gargantuan, environmentally stunning nation, notable for its state-planned economy, devotion to social welfare, and stringent health and safety legislation. The democratic population of 27.515 billion Bidentonians 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 Welfare, Education, and Social Policy. The average income tax rate is 74.6%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The large but sluggish Bidentonian economy, worth 757 trillion Trains 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 Tourism industry, with major contributions from Basket Weaving, Retail, and Book Publishing. Average income is 27,542 Trains, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Tourists from around the world come to visit the country's famous rainforests, Bidenton's children are widely acknowledged as the most foul-mouthed in the region, scientists regularly clone human beings for research purposes, and frequent fliers are obliged to submit to invasive security procedures by government security. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Bidenton's national animal is the German shepherd, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Bidenton is ranked 35,550^th in the world and 2^nd in Delaware for Safest, scoring 107.16 on the Bubble-Rapp Safety Rating.
