The Imperial Glorious Empire of Baggieland is a gargantuan, cultured nation, ruled by King Alswitch with an iron fist, and remarkable for its avowedly heterosexual populace, free-roaming dinosaurs, and complete absence of social welfare. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless population of 14.665 billion Baggies 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 relatively small, corrupt, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Education, Industry, and Environment. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Hawthorn. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 2.5%.

The frighteningly efficient Baggielandian economy, worth a remarkable 5,054 trillion boings a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Retail, Gambling, and Arms Manufacturing. Black market activity is extensive. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an amazing 344,649 boings, with the richest citizens earning 5.6 times as much as the poorest.

One-stop superstores divide and conquer family businesses, a child's only Trickster Night scare is the sight of their parents dancing, there has been a series of riots between local cannibals and health food advocates, and Hawthorn's main city thoroughfare has been blocked by a row of leyland cypresses that mysteriously appeared overnight. Crime is pervasive, with the police force struggling against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. Baggieland's national animal is the throstle, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Baggieland is ranked 369^th in the world and 1^st in B71 for Largest Gambling Industry, scoring 29,649.64 on the Kelly Criterion Productivity Index.
