The Kingdom of Sovereign Belgium is a gargantuan, safe nation, ruled by King Philip I with an even hand, and notable for its burgeoning lion population. The democratic population of 18.631 billion Sovereign Belgians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The large, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Welfare, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Brussels. The average income tax rate is 33.7%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The large but underdeveloped Sovereign Belgiumian economy, worth 433 trillion Euros a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Automobile Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Gambling, Uranium Mining, and Information Technology. Black market activity is notable. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 23,269 Euros, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Voting is compulsory, surveillance cameras are banned, Sovereign Belgium has designated Brussels as its capital city, and King Philip I has just been declared ruler of Sovereign Belgium in an international press conference. Crime is well under control, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Sovereign Belgium's national animal is the lion.

Sovereign Belgium is ranked 171,113^th in the world and 2^nd in Imperial Pacific for Lowest Crime Rates, with 59.2 law-abiding acts per hour.
