The Dominion of Banieltopia is a massive, cultured nation, ruled by Gaaary The Magnificent with an even hand, and remarkable for its keen interest in outer space, multi-spousal wedding ceremonies, and irreverence towards religion. The compassionate, democratic population of 3.348 billion Banieltopians enjoy extensive civil rights and enjoy a level of social equality free from the usual accompanying government corruption.

The large, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Environment. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Bantropolis. The average income tax rate is 76.5%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The powerhouse Banieltopian economy, worth 342 trillion Bonsas a year, is quite specialized and led by the Book Publishing industry, with major contributions from Tourism and Information Technology. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 102,327 Bonsas, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Gaaary The Magnificent steals from the rich and gives to the needy, customer satisfaction with online delivery services is at an all time high, political satirists and late night comedians weep as the government begins cleaning up its act, and people stand their fridges back-to-front to benefit from the free heating. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Banieltopia's national animal is the Noble Turtle, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans, and its national religion is Bonsism.

Banieltopia is ranked 30,658^th in the world and 703^rd in the South Pacific for Most Scientifically Advanced, scoring 216.59 on the Kurzweil Singularity Index.
