The Sultanate of Bawland is a gargantuan, safe nation, ruled by Sultan with an even hand, and notable for its pith helmet sales, free-roaming dinosaurs, and national health service. The compassionate, humorless population of 46.038 billion Bawlanders enjoy extensive civil rights and enjoy a level of social equality free from the usual accompanying government corruption.

The enormous, corrupt, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Healthcare, Education, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Bawland City. The average income tax rate is 98.0%.

The frighteningly efficient Bawlandian economy, worth a remarkable 8,152 trillion haws a year, is highly specialized and led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Arms Manufacturing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 177,090 haws, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The nation is experiencing a severe shortage of sporting events, teenage male videogamers often suffer repetitive strain wrist injuries, the Supreme Court vehemently protects civil rights and the right to privacy, and it's been a banner year for local vexillology. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Bawland's national animal is the wild booby, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Coolholism.

Bawland is ranked 35,258^th in the world and 1^st in Seven Eleven for Most Corrupt Governments, with 61.66 kickbacks per hour.
