The Confederacy of Bakhr is a tiny, safe nation, notable for its barren, inhospitable landscape, state-planned economy, and irreverence towards religion. The hard-nosed, hard-working population of 16 million Bakhrians have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and look forward to their next free and open election, to be held on an as-yet unannounced date.

The large government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Education. The average income tax rate is 50.7%.

The Bakhrian economy, worth 718 billion Dinars a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector is led by the Automobile Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Uranium Mining, Arms Manufacturing, and Retail. Average income is 44,887 Dinars, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.2 times as much as the poorest.

Mantis shrimp studies is academia's fastest-growing field, the mood of raunchy movies is often ruined by the sound of babies crying, it is popularly believed that "cheese every day keeps disaster away", and fake beard sales are on the rise amongst female commuters. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Bakhr's national animal is the Arabian phoenix, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to toxic air pollution.

Bakhr is ranked 148,122^nd in the world and 7^th in Organization Islam United for Highest Poor Incomes, with 23,969.98 Standard Monetary Units.
