The Oppressed Peoples of BCC 52 is a huge, efficient nation, remarkable for its burgeoning bison population. The hard-working population of 320 million BCC 52ians are either ruled by a sleek, efficient government or a conglomerate of multinational corporations; it's difficult to tell which.

The relatively small, pro-business government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Education. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 11.3%.

The very strong BCC 52ian economy, worth 19.0 trillion lire a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Woodchip Exports industry, with major contributions from Furniture Restoration, Gambling, and Uranium Mining. Average income is 59,508 lire, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 185,167 per year while the poor average 14,704, a ratio of 12.6 to 1.

The tenet of free speech is held dear, the government awards prizes to television shows featuring stereotype-breaking minority roles, surveillance cameras are banned, and viewers get headaches from trying to read the screen full of small print warnings that precede most TV shows. Crime is a problem. BCC 52's national animal is the bison, which can occasionally be seen sifting through garbage in the nation's cities.

BCC 52 is ranked 184,657^th in the world and 6,918^th in Suspicious for Most Corrupt Governments, with 2.41 kickbacks per hour.
