The Republic of Benigetsu is a mid-sized, efficient nation, notable for its barren, inhospitable landscape and irreverence towards religion. The hard-working, democratic population of 56 million Benigetsuans are either ruled by a sleek, efficient government or a conglomerate of multinational corporations; it's difficult to tell which.

The tiny government is primarily concerned with Defense, with Law & Order, Education, and Welfare also on the agenda, while International Aid and Spirituality are ignored. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 6.2%.

The very strong Benigetsuan economy, worth 4.00 trillion lire a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Retail, Soda Sales, and Furniture Restoration. Average income is 71,436 lire, with the richest citizens earning 9.4 times as much as the poorest.

Crime is a problem, with the police force struggling against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. Benigetsu's national animal is the unicorn, which can occasionally be seen sifting through garbage in the nation's cities.

Benigetsu is ranked 211,539^th in the world and 391^st in Communitas for Largest Cheese Export Sector, scoring 589.69 on the Mozzarella Productivity Index.
