The Not So Holy Red Blue Utopias of Bodegraven is a gargantuan, genial nation, ruled by His Royal Highness Angus Postma with a fair hand, and remarkable for its keen interest in outer space, rampant corporate plagiarism, and free-roaming dinosaurs. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful, devout population of 30.513 billion Bodegravenaren hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.

The government — a sprawling, bureaucracy-choked, outspoken morass — juggles the competing demands of Education, Environment, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Greater Bodegraven. The income tax rate is 100%.

The frighteningly efficient Bodegraafsch economy, worth a remarkable 6,487 trillion BodegravenGuldens a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is extremely specialized, is mostly made up of the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Book Publishing. Average income is an amazing 212,626 BodegravenGuldens, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Citizens can only enjoy the splendor of the natural world in designated 'Majesty Appreciation' zones, posters on 'Bodegraafsch Values' advise against being proud of Bodegraven, government officials sit helplessly as they are labelled 'Pompous Womples' by celebrities, and people can get away with murder these days. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Bodegraven's national animal is the Freckled Cow, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Agnostic Theism.

Bodegraven is ranked 291,034^th in the world and 8^th in Global Right Alliance for Most Corrupt Governments, with 0.24 kickbacks per hour.
