The Holy Empire of BeNjAmInLaNdIa is a massive, efficient nation, ruled by STRGINDPNDTBLCKWMN with an even hand, and remarkable for its smutty television, free-roaming dinosaurs, and frequent executions. The hard-nosed population of 1.876 billion BeNjAmInLaNdIans have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Healthcare, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Budne. The average income tax rate is 42.5%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The all-consuming BeNjAmInLaNdIan economy, worth 199 trillion Benjamins a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is a slick, highly efficient, broadly diversified black market in Arms Manufacturing, Tourism, Book Publishing, and Information Technology. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is an impressive 106,502 Benjamins, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.3 times as much as the poorest.

The Pipe Bomb Makers' Pop-Up Book can be found in preschool libraries, warfare increasingly resembles a video game, the annual budget is heralded by the Treasury Minister donning a fake plastic mustache and giant star-shaped glasses, and STRGINDPNDTBLCKWMN can often be seen hanging around playgrounds chatting with the kids. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. BeNjAmInLaNdIa's national animal is the Blobfish, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans, and its national religion is K'SAWSNT RL AND OBMA RND R CNTRY.

BeNjAmInLaNdIa is ranked 118,115th in the world and 1,993rd in The East Pacific for Largest Gambling Industry, scoring 1,164.7 on the Kelly Criterion Productivity Index.
