The Autonomous Colony of Beloura is a colossal, efficient nation, ruled by First Minister João Gonçalves with an even hand, and remarkable for its multi-spousal wedding ceremonies, ubiquitous missile silos, and restrictive gun laws. The compassionate population of 7.771 billion Belourans are highly moralistic and fiercely conservative, in the sense that they tend to believe most things should be outlawed. People who have good jobs and work quietly at them are lauded; others are viewed with suspicion.

The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Education, Defense, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Leiria. The average income tax rate is 68.9%.

The frighteningly efficient Belouran economy, worth a remarkable 1,012 trillion Belouran Cruzadoes a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Retail, and Arms Manufacturing. Average income is an impressive 130,251 Belouran Cruzadoes, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 4.7 times as much as the poorest.

The rich tend their gardens inside gated urban farming communities, kids' party bags often contain candy and e-cigarettes, all mothers are allowed six months fully-paid maternity leave, and there is a growing belief that consciousness is a simulated illusion within a computer-generated reality. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Beloura's national animal is the Cão de Fila de São Miguel, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Progressive Christianity.

Beloura is ranked 23,922^nd in the world and 5^th in The Constitutional Democratic States for Healthiest Citizens, with 10.01 bananas ingested per day.
