The Cantonal Island Republic of Buglas Island is a massive, genial nation, remarkable for its compulsory military service, ban on automobiles, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, democratic population of 1.153 billion Buglasanons 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 Social Policy. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Magsungay City. The average income tax rate is 47.5%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The sizeable but inefficient Buglasanon economy, worth 48.7 trillion Buglas Pesos a year, is quite specialized and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Trout Farming, Basket Weaving, and Book Publishing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 42,209 Buglas Pesos, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The Buglasanon Arts Council pays teenagers to sit through opera performances, Maxtopian Grass flags adorn every college dorm room, claiming that "my cousin said it was legal" is a common courtroom defense, and attendance of fathers at PTA meetings is at an all-time high. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Buglas Island's national animal is the Carabao, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Buglas Island is ranked 278,598^th in the world and 74^th in Philippines for Highest Disposable Incomes, with 22,159.73 Standard Monetary Units.
