The Republic of Bodusse is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by Clarissa Moriarty with a fair hand, and notable for its national health service, irreverence towards religion, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, democratic population of 12.075 billion Bodusseans hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.

The enormous, outspoken government is primarily concerned with Healthcare, although Education, Environment, and Law & Order are also considered important, while Spirituality receives no funds. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Willowbendale. The average income tax rate is 68.5%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The thriving Bodussean economy, worth 848 trillion pounds a year, is quite specialized and led by the Book Publishing industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Information Technology, and Basket Weaving. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 70,289 pounds, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Annual Formula One races bring the capital to a screeching halt, civil servants are no longer allowed to cross their t's, military spending recently hit a new high, and teams of painters are converting road signs from horse lengths to kilometers. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Bodusse's national animal is the Dragon, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is None.

Bodusse is ranked 232,737^th in the world and 2,847^th in the West Pacific for Highest Disposable Incomes, with 22,141.34 Standard Monetary Units.
