The QUACCO of Bears Armed Broadcasting Corporation is a gargantuan, socially progressive nation, ruled by Director-General with a fair hand, and notable for its keen interest in outer space, avant-garde cinema, and free-roaming dinosaurs. The compassionate, hard-working, democratic, cheerful, devout population of 12.701 billion Broadcasters hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.

The relatively small, liberal, outspoken government prioritizes Education, although Administration, Industry, and Environment are also considered important, while Defense isn't funded at all. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Broadcasting House. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 52.5%.

The frighteningly efficient BABC economy, worth a remarkable 2,514 trillion thalers a year, is dominated by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing, Soda Sales, and Retail. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an impressive 197,942 thalers, with the richest citizens earning 5.7 times as much as the poorest.

BABC novella fans become unusually flustered when thinking about Director-General, bris parties are all the rage, village elders are often called in to interpret voting outcomes in Parliament, and kids are told they can be whoever they want to be when they grow up. Crime is totally unknown. Bears Armed Broadcasting Corporation's national animal is the chromatic crow, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is One Plus Seven and Ursionity.

Bears Armed Broadcasting Corporation is ranked 313,388^th in the world and 70^th in International Democratic Union for Most Advanced Defense Forces, scoring -13.04 on the Total War Preparedness Rating.
