OverviewPoliciesPeopleGovernmentEconomyRankTrendCards

The Kingdom of Bardopia is a massive, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by King Bard the first of His name with a fair hand, and remarkable for its state-planned economy, absence of drug laws, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, democratic population of 4.923 billion Bardopians enjoy extensive civil rights and enjoy a level of social equality free from the usual accompanying government corruption.

The enormous, liberal, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Bardopolis. The average income tax rate is 95.8%.

The frighteningly efficient Bardopian economy, worth 679 trillion Bardollars a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is highly specialized, is mostly made up of the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism and Book Publishing. Average income is an impressive 138,123 Bardollars, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Group hugs break out during floor votes, signatures have been replaced with illegible scribbles, tech-mad citizens think that the laser-powered bread-slicer uPhone App is the coolest thing since sliced bread, and the government has declared its commitment to multilateralism. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Bardopia's national animal is the Bear, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Bardism.

Bardopia is ranked 280,603rd in the world and 5,935th in The North Pacific for Largest Gambling Industry, scoring -12.31 on the Kelly Criterion Productivity Index.
