The Kingdom of Banija is a gargantuan, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Kabaka Mwanga with an even hand, and notable for its anti-smoking policies, public floggings, and keen interest in outer space. The hard-nosed, hard-working, devout population of 19.806 billion Banijans are either ruled by a sleek, efficient government or a conglomerate of multinational corporations; it's difficult to tell which.

The large, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Healthcare, Education, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Busukuma. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 68.9%.

The frighteningly efficient Banijan economy, worth a remarkable 1,882 trillion Shillings a year, is quite specialized and mostly made up of the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Arms Manufacturing. Black market activity is extensive. Average income is 95,025 Shillings, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 349,939 per year while the poor average 18,227, a ratio of 19.2 to 1.

Future forecasters fearfully discuss grey goo and human obsolescence, Kabaka Mwanga can be seen doing doughnuts in a new Rambogini, the act of reporting blasphemy is known as 'Orthodoxxing', and vacationers and business travelers are often warned that they may lose the right to vote if they spend too much time overseas. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. Banija's national animal is the African Lion, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Puritan Church of Latter-Day Saints.

Banija is ranked 311,679th in the world and 30th in Arrosia for Largest Insurance Industry, scoring -15.23 on the Risk Expulsion Effectiveness Rating.
