The Intergalactic Alliance of Betelgeuse Alliance is a colossal, safe nation, ruled by Roger A with a fair hand, and notable for its multi-spousal wedding ceremonies, unlimited-speed roads, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, hard-working, democratic, cheerful population of 5.114 billion Betelgeusians live in a state of perpetual fear, as a complete breakdown of social order has led to the rise of order through biker gangs.

The relatively small, liberal, pro-business, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Education, Welfare, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Betelgeuse City. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 9.8%.

The frighteningly efficient Betelgeuse Alliancean economy, worth a remarkable 1,017 trillion Betels a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Retail, and Book Publishing. Average income is an impressive 198,943 Betels, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 705,442 per year while the poor average 40,470, a ratio of 17.4 to 1.

You need two tenors and a coloratura contralto to sing the national anthem properly, citizens are permitted to carry concealed handguns, therapists can always squeeze in another house-call, and sexually-starved male dinosaurs terrorise tourists during weekly breakouts from Mesozoic Park. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. Betelgeuse Alliance's national animal is the YEET, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Betelgeuse Alliance is ranked 143,313^th in the world and 88^th in RGBN for Largest Insurance Industry, scoring 154.49 on the Risk Expulsion Effectiveness Rating.
