The United Kingdom of Belnades is a massive, cultured nation, ruled by Belgarath and Montjoy with a fair hand, and renowned for its ban on automobiles, pith helmet sales, and smutty television. The compassionate, democratic population of 2.977 billion Belnades are free to do what they want with their own bodies, and vote for whomever they like in elections; if they go into business, however, they are regulated to within an inch of their lives.

The medium-sized, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Welfare, Education, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Ishmall. The average income tax rate is 44.5%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The strong Belnavior economy, worth 182 trillion Usal Beams a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Uranium Mining, and Basket Weaving. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 61,137 Usal Beams, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.0 times as much as the poorest.

Social media sites go into shutdown for days at a time to censor user content, Belgarath and Montjoy is too busy listening to praise to get any work done, constipated-looking politicians are uptight about potty mouths, and road signs are getting harder to read under layers of knitted woolen cardigans. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Belnades's national animal is the Darling, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Jeez.

Belnades is ranked 44,910^th in the world and 10^th in Yuno for Largest Insurance Industry, scoring 3,605.25 on the Risk Expulsion Effectiveness Rating.
