The Republic of Betsoff is a massive, environmentally stunning nation, renowned for its irreverence towards religion. The quiet, industrious population of 1.363 billion Betsoffians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Welfare, Education, and Healthcare. The average income tax rate is 39.8%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The sizeable but inefficient Betsoffian economy, worth 47.6 trillion Pounds a year, is quite specialized and dominated by the Trout Farming industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Cheese Exports, and Furniture Restoration. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 34,929 Pounds, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.0 times as much as the poorest.

Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Betsoff's national animal is the Dog, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Betsoff is ranked 85,471^st in the world and 818^th in the West Pacific for Most Compassionate Citizens, scoring 45.34 on the Kitten Softness Rating.
