The Protected Republic of Belvon is a colossal, devout nation, remarkable for its parental licensing program. Its hard-nosed, hard-working, intelligent population of 6.089 billion live in a state of perpetual fear, as a complete breakdown of social order has led to the rise of order through biker gangs.

There is no government in the normal sense of the word; however, a small group of community-minded, corrupt, pro-business individuals devotes most of its attentions to Law & Order, with areas such as Social Equality and Social Welfare receiving almost no funds by comparison. Income tax is unheard of. A powerhouse of a private sector is led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, followed by Automobile Manufacturing and Beef-Based Agriculture.

Coco the Clown has been elected to the nation's parliament, computer users are buried daily in thousands of unsolicited emails, senior citizens can usually be found doing heavy manual labour, and otherwise healthy people are being sent to internment camps because they have VODAIS. Crime -- especially youth-related -- is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Belvon's national animal is the peregrine falcon, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its currency is the Quill.

Belvon is ranked 2237th in the region and 51,443rd in the world for Highest Unemployment Rates.
