The Interim Government of Bythesas is a gargantuan, orderly nation, ruled by President-Regent Augus Evermerian with an iron fist, and renowned for its museums and concert halls, compulsory military service, and digital currency. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless population of 18.494 billion Bythesasians are ruled by a mostly-benevolent dictator, who grants the populace the freedom to live their own lives but watches carefully for anyone to slip up.

The large, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Education, Healthcare, and Defense. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Sperasas. The average income tax rate is 81.6%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Bythesasian economy, worth a remarkable 2,677 trillion Provisional Credits a year, is quite specialized and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Arms Manufacturing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 144,775 Provisional Credits, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Concert halls sport signs proclaiming "No Shorts, Sandals or Swastikas", populations of two-headed Steppe Unicorns have been found around recently-uncovered archaeological sites, pre-takeoff checks last longer than the flights themselves, and the nation is famous for bravely sending wave after wave of its soldiers until the enemy runs out of bullets. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Bythesas's national animal is the Steppe Unicorn, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is the Faith.

Bythesas is ranked 10,415^th in the world and 1^st in The Asnean Coalition for Highest Food Quality, scoring 158.26 on the Meeshlin-Starr Index.
