The Empire of Bahria is a massive, cultured nation, ruled by King Henry with an even hand, and remarkable for its keen interest in outer space, triple-decker prams, and irreverence towards religion. The hard-nosed, hard-working population of 3.627 billion Bahrians 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 Defense, Education, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Bahriabad. The average income tax rate is 19.4%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The very strong Bahrian economy, worth 250 trillion Bahrian Rupees a year, is led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Trout Farming, Furniture Restoration, and Woodchip Exports. Average income is 69,125 Bahrian Rupees, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

There's no representation without taxation, paraplegics are told to walk it off, crime suspects are forced to submit to blood testing, and banning party poppers has been a real party pooper. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. Bahria's national animal is the Indus Dolphin, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans, and its national religion is Islam.

Bahria is ranked 105,889^th in the world and 2^nd in Lehendia for Most Primitive, scoring -22.25 on the Scary Big Number Scale.
