The Constantly sleep deprived of Bir Matras is a huge, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Matis Walkow with a fair hand, and notable for its anti-smoking policies, free-roaming dinosaurs, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate, democratic population of 971 million Bir Matrasians love a good election, and the government gives them plenty of them. Universities tend to be full of students debating the merits of various civil and political rights, while businesses are tightly regulated and the wealthy viewed with suspicion.

The large, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Environment. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Nova Summus. The average income tax rate is 68.2%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The very strong Bir Matrasian economy, worth 76.4 trillion Afris 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 significant contributions from Tourism and Book Publishing. Average income is 78,680 Afris, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The newly revamped army is so eager for action that it has trouble keeping the peace, small children are learning a lot of new words from a teacher with Tourette Syndrome, the standardised national curriculum requires that all-male classes be taught why they have periods, and dozens of additional foreign policy specialists have been sent to the country's WA Mission. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Bir Matras's national animal is the Fennek, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Bir Matras is ranked 271,492nd in the world and 1,096th in Europeia for Largest Basket Weaving Sector, scoring -5.67 on the Hickory Productivity Index.
