The Been warned by mods of Greater Bahland is a huge, efficient nation, remarkable for its national health service, anti-smoking policies, and enslaved workforce. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless population of 573 million Bahlandians are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."
The large, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government prioritizes Defense, with Law & Order, Education, and Administration also on the agenda, while Spirituality receives no funds. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Königsberg. The average income tax rate is 69.2%.
The powerhouse Bahlandian economy, worth 69.0 trillion Königsmarks a year, is led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Information Technology, and Cheese Exports. Black market activity is rampant. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 120,346 Königsmarks, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 4.9 times as much as the poorest.
Brave curators do battle with disorganised government libraries, the government is spending millions on lawyers' fees trying to get Leader off a murder charge, widespread voter apathy has been credited to allegations that all candidates are puppets of Leader, and the studies of art and philosophy are banned. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Greater Bahland's national animal is the Black Eagle, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.
Greater Bahland is ranked 210,872nd in the world and 1st in Holder for Largest Insurance Industry, scoring -8.11 on the Risk Expulsion Effectiveness Rating.
