The Republic of Beringian is a mammoth, socially progressive nation, notable for its irreverence towards religion, absence of drug laws, and spontaneously combusting cars. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic population of 6.95 billion Beringianians live in a state of perpetual fear, as a complete breakdown of social order has led to the rise of order through biker gangs.

The minute, liberal, pro-business, outspoken government, or what there is of one, is dominated by the Department of Defense, although Welfare, Industry, and Healthcare are also considered important, while Spirituality and International Aid aren't funded at all. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 4.5%.

The strong Beringianian economy, worth 353 trillion aurums a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is broadly diversified and led by the Uranium Mining industry, with major contributions from Automobile Manufacturing, Pizza Delivery, and Retail. Average income is 50,724 aurums, but there is a vast disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 326,920 per year while the poor average 3,179, a ratio of 102 to 1.

Citizens are enjoying a recent large cut in taxes. Crime is a major problem, probably because of the absence of a police force. Beringian's national animal is the bovina, which can occasionally be seen sifting through garbage in the nation's cities.

Beringian is ranked 266,601^st in the world and 1^st in Beringia for Most Developed, scoring 51.24 on the Human Development Index.
