The United Empire of Bara and Yaoi is a massive, cultured nation, ruled by The Imperial Trio with a fair hand, and notable for its smutty television, daily referendums, and irreverence towards religion. The compassionate, hard-working, democratic population of 1.606 billion Man Lovers hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.

The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Healthcare, Welfare, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Takegawa. The average income tax rate is 31.7%.

The Man Loving economy, worth 87.2 trillion Mascers a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Beef-Based Agriculture industry, with major contributions from Automobile Manufacturing, Woodchip Exports, and Tourism. Average income is 54,298 Mascers, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.6 times as much as the poorest.

People accuse the government of being in bed with Big Safety, drug deals return to the streets as legions of undercover officers stalk the dark web, polygraphs are relegated to the dungeon exhibit in castle museums, and the government has declined to declare any particular religion as its 'official' one. Crime is totally unknown. Bara and Yaoi's national animal is the Dolphin, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans.

Bara and Yaoi is ranked 251,714^th in the world and 44^th in The Universal Federation for Most Eco-Friendly Governments, scoring 86.7 on the Dolphin Recycling Awareness Index.
