The Most Serene Republic of Balto is a huge, environmentally stunning nation, notable for its frequent executions, smutty television, and restrictive gun laws. The compassionate population of 467 million Yognaughts are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The large, socially-minded government prioritizes Education, although Social Policy, Administration, and Healthcare are also considered important, while Spirituality and Defense aren't funded at all. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Seaportattleland. The average income tax rate is 58.1%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The sizeable but underdeveloped Baltoan economy, worth 16.9 trillion Jaffa Cakes a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is quite specialized, is dominated by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Basket Weaving, Cheese Exports, and Furniture Restoration. Average income is 36,259 Jaffa Cakes, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Sales of pregnancy testing kits are booming, traffic cops spend most of their work-hours calculating citizens' monthly income, "Leader got your tongue?" has become a popular idiom, and businesses are abandoning the city centre because of the lack of transport connections. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Balto's national animal is the Crab People, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans.

Balto is ranked 210,693rd in the world and 3,906th in The North Pacific for Most Stationary, with 36.6339696098 days.
