The Disputed Territories of The Belverordia is a massive, cultured nation, ruled by Jonesy with a fair hand, and notable for its multi-spousal wedding ceremonies, state-planned economy, and fear of technology. The compassionate, democratic population of 2.105 billion Belverordians are free to do what they want with their own bodies, and vote for whomever they like in elections; if they go into business, however, they are regulated to within an inch of their lives.

It is difficult to tell where the omnipresent, liberal, socially-minded, outspoken government stops and the rest of society begins, but it juggles the competing demands of Education, Environment, and Welfare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Panthergrad. The average income tax rate is 91.7%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The thriving Belverordian economy, worth 146 trillion guilders a year, is driven almost entirely by government activity, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector is solely comprised of the Door-to-door Insurance Sales industry. Average income is 69,805 guilders, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Cash-strapped junkies lick rabbits for a cheap high, rioting during the nation's hosting of ORDER caused one million guilders of property damage, cane fights are a common sight in nursing homes, and ersatz chicken has left the nation's citizens with a bad taste in their mouths. Crime is totally unknown. The Belverordia's national animal is the panther, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

The Belverordia is ranked 8,531^st in the world and 10^th in The Wellspring for Most Advanced Public Education, scoring 12,025.91 on the Edu-tellignce® Test Score.
