The Constitutional Monarchy of Bearical is a massive, efficient nation, renowned for its sprawling nuclear power plants, avant-garde cinema, and irreverence towards religion. The compassionate, democratic population of 4.903 billion Bearicalians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The enormous government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Healthcare. The average income tax rate is 90.8%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Bearicalian economy, worth 626 trillion Berries a year, is quite specialized and dominated 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 127,779 Berries, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

B-SPAN viewership drops as MPs act their age, immigrants who carry knives on them are presumed to be chefs, foreign 'investors' have been taking a great interest in the new secret shuttle, and conspiracy theorists allege Bearical City's new subway map resembles Satanic symbols. 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 7,293^rd in the world and 352^nd in The North Pacific for Lowest Crime Rates, with 99.76 Law-abiding Acts Per Hour.
