The Community of Bellhop is a massive, orderly nation, remarkable for its frequent executions, state-planned economy, and restrictive gun laws. The hard-nosed, cynical population of 4.821 billion Bellhopians are ruled without fear or favor by a psychotic dictator, who outlaws just about everything and refers to the populace as "my little playthings."
The large, moralistic, socially-minded, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Healthcare. The average income tax rate is 48.0%, but much higher for the wealthy.
The sizeable but stagnant Bellhopian economy, worth 37.9 trillion bellhops a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is a slick, highly efficient black market in Trout Farming, Book Publishing, Cheese Exports, and Furniture Restoration. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is 7,868 bellhops, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.
Colonial subjects have Bellhopian culture shoved down their throats, the Bellhop City XV Regiment (aka "The Goat Starers") have yet to win a battle, courtrooms can be a little sketchy, and in a desperate bid for cheap airfare Bellhopians can be seen jogging in a rubber suit just before flying. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Bellhop's national animal is the bellhop, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.
Bellhop is ranked 262,204th in the world and 113th in belgium for Highest Food Quality, scoring 7.12 on the Meeshlin-Starr Index.
