The Commonwealth of Bangtanopia is a small, cultured nation, remarkable for its burgeoning Rabbit population. The compassionate population of 40 million Bangtanopians have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Welfare. The average income tax rate is 29.3%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The sizeable but inefficient Bangtanopian economy, worth 1.94 trillion YEN a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Trout Farming industry, with major contributions from Beef-Based Agriculture, Uranium Mining, and Soda Sales. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 48,496 YEN, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Sections of the police receive paramilitary training, Brancaland has gifted over nine thousand putrid moose carcasses to Bangtanopia as a reminder of their "special relationship", historic buildings are being demolished to allow for road-widening in the city centre, and newspapers and TV broadcasters are given a list of 'acceptable words'. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Bangtanopia's national animal is the Rabbit, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Bangtanopia is ranked 168,268^th in the world and 118^th in The League for Fattest Citizens, with 9.77 Obesity Rate.
