The Gautland actually of Bakyern 2 is a titanic, safe nation, ruled by Stafen Ovost with an even hand, and remarkable for its compulsory military service, public floggings, and stringent health and safety legislation. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic population of 12 billion Bakyernians 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 medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Healthcare, Defense, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Kalvat. The average income tax rate is 46.9%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The strong Bakyernian economy, worth 841 trillion Estiimarkas a year, is led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Trout Farming. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 70,142 Estiimarkas, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The national anthem is a rather effective sleeping aid, sniffer dogs are trained to follow clouds of fruity-smelling vapor, nighttime sightings of raccoons sporting Circle-A patches and bandanna masks are on the rise, and Stafen Ovost's new office has a propensity to catch on fire. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Bakyern 2's national animal is the Raccoon, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Bakyern 2 is ranked 62,988^th in the world and 53^rd in Anteria for Most Eco-Friendly Governments, scoring 1,612.11 on the Dolphin Recycling Awareness Index.
