The Chosen Empire of Bassiliya is a massive, environmentally stunning nation, renowned for its punitive income tax rates and stringent health and safety legislation. The cynical population of 2.228 billion Bassiliyans are ruled by a mostly-benevolent dictator, who grants the populace the freedom to live their own lives but watches carefully for anyone to slip up.
The enormous government juggles the competing demands of Healthcare, Law & Order, and Defense. The average income tax rate is 70.2%, and even higher for the wealthy.
The sizeable but inefficient Bassiliyan economy, worth 62.9 trillion Kairmas a year, is quite specialized and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Cheese Exports, Trout Farming, and Information Technology. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 28,242 Kairmas, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.
The alarmingly racist TV show 'Bigtopians Say the Darndest Things' is a hit, organ donation is compulsory, citizens are barcoded to keep track of their movements, and X-Files ratings have hit an all-time low. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Bassiliya's national animal is the Owl, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.
Bassiliya is ranked 97,585th in the world and 58th in Thegye for Most Devout, with 130.47 Prayers Per Hour.
