The Republic of Baedan 2 is a small, pleasant nation, renowned for its burgeoning cow population. The hard-working population of 23 million Baedan 2ians have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The relatively small government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Welfare. The average income tax rate is 17.3%.

The Baedan 2ian economy, worth 1.04 trillion deniers a year, is led by the Gambling industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Furniture Restoration, and Trout Farming. Average income is 45,272 deniers, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.6 times as much as the poorest.

Crime is relatively low, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Baedan 2's national animal is the cow.

Baedan 2 is ranked 216,309^th in the world and 2^nd in Yayafrica for Highest Economic Output, with 1.04 trillion Standard Monetary Units.
