The Republic of Basover is a massive, efficient nation, renowned for its digital currency, keen interest in outer space, and pith helmet sales. The hard-nosed, hard-working population of 1.764 billion Basoverians 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 prioritizes Defense, with Law & Order, Education, and Administration also on the agenda. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 38.3%.

The thriving Basoverian economy, worth 155 trillion dollars a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Woodchip Exports, Book Publishing, and Basket Weaving. Average income is 88,332 dollars, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 264,206 per year while the poor average 23,096, a ratio of 11.4 to 1.

No animal is considered endangered if there's another that looks kind of like it, the homeless more often beg for mercy than money, wildlife near farms is slowly becoming extinct, and public footpaths are being slowly eroded by the burgeoning number of ramblers. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Basover's national animal is the aplix, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Basover is ranked 78,842^nd in the world and 237^th in Concord for Highest Average Incomes, with 88,332.11 Standard Monetary Units.
