Black market eau de toilette is made in bathroom labs across the nation, scientists regularly clone human beings for research purposes, radio shows frequently feature people denouncing religion, and scientists are terrified of fabulous new breakthroughs. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. North Baravate's national animal is the Flamingo, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.
