The Constitutional Monarchy of Bearical is a massive, safe nation, remarkable for its national health service, sprawling nuclear power plants, and ubiquitous missile silos. The compassionate, democratic population of 3.167 billion Bearicalians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The large government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Healthcare. The average income tax rate is 89.4%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Bearicalian economy, worth 406 trillion Berries a year, is quite specialized and led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Trout Farming, Tourism, and Book Publishing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 128,282 Berries, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The navy is chrome-plating its battleships to prevent rust, the ongoing space elevator construction project has elevated the national debt to all new levels, anti-government web sites are springing up, and Bearical's children are widely acknowledged as the most foul-mouthed in the region. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Bearical's national animal is the Bear, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Bearical is ranked 152,789^th in the world and 7,751^st in The North Pacific for Largest Retail Industry, scoring -19.87 on the Shrinkwrap Consignment Productivity Index.
