The Islands of Greater Burmaria is a massive, cultured nation, ruled by Davis Pavlina with an even hand, and remarkable for its museums and concert halls, complete lack of prisons, and pith helmet sales. The compassionate population of 1.769 billion Greater Burmarians have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The large government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Environment. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Bonetwin. The average income tax rate is 77.2%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Greater Burmarian economy, worth 189 trillion Tacos a year, is quite specialized and led by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Basket Weaving, and Cheese Exports. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an impressive 107,376 Tacos, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Davis Pavlina is rumored to have teleportation powers, vegetables are crisper thanks to CRISPR, the government has an entire department dedicated to staring at microscopes and writing down letters, and viewers get headaches from trying to read the screen full of small print warnings that precede most TV shows. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Greater Burmaria's national animal is the Sheep, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Greater Burmaria is ranked 43,028^th in the world and 128^th in Conch Kingdom for Most Scientifically Advanced, scoring 167.8 on the Kurzweil Singularity Index.
