The Republic of Beneti is a huge, cultured nation, ruled by President Touré Calix with a fair hand, and renowned for its smutty television, punitive income tax rates, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, democratic population of 956 million Benetiens love a good election, and the government gives them plenty of them. Universities tend to be full of students debating the merits of various civil and political rights, while businesses are tightly regulated and the wealthy viewed with suspicion.

The enormous government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Anulagu. The average income tax rate is 73.4%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The all-consuming Benetien economy, worth 81.6 trillion Benetien Graínes a year, is quite specialized and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Book Publishing, Basket Weaving, and Information Technology. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 85,322 Benetien Graínes, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Every new building project has to undergo a five-year environmental impact study before it can go ahead, people can often be seen driving to work in war-surplus tanks, the fate of the world literally rests on President Touré Calix's fingers, and surrogate mothers are encouraged to refer to their wombs as 'rental space'. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Beneti's national animal is the Macaw, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Beneti is ranked 55,541^st in the world and 965^th in the South Pacific for Most Patriotic, with 25.22 flags saluted per person per day.
