The Conglomerate Corporations of BNL Corporation is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by Global CEO Shelby Forthright with an even hand, and renowned for its rum-swilling pirates, free-roaming dinosaurs, and infamous sell-swords. The hard-nosed, hard-working, humorless population of 13.782 billion BNL Consumers enjoy some of the most opulent lifestyles in the region, unless they are unemployed or working-class, in which case they are variously starving to death or crippled by easily preventable diseases.

The minute, corrupt, liberal, pro-business government, or what there is of one, is effectively ruled by the Department of Industry, although Defense is also considered important, while Welfare and Spirituality aren't funded at all. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of London. Income tax is unheard of.

The frighteningly efficient BNL Consumer economy, worth a remarkable 3,794 trillion BNL Bucks a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is broadly diversified and led by the Retail industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Soda Sales, and Gambling. Average income is an amazing 275,342 BNL Bucks, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 4.8 times as much as the poorest.

News headlines suggest that Global CEO Shelby Forthright has a sideline in guinea pig pimping, it turns out you can put a price on sporting integrity, children have only the most basic of education, and the space program has been reduced to Global CEO Shelby Forthright's nephew playing with a cardboard space shuttle. Crime, especially youth-related, is all-pervasive, perhaps because of the country's complete lack of prisons. BNL Corporation's national animal is the BNL Consumer, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

BNL Corporation is ranked 289,809^th in the world and 11,393^rd in Lazarus for Highest Food Quality, scoring 3.45 on the Meeshlin-Starr Index.
