The Nation of BGD is a gargantuan, orderly nation, ruled by King David Barksdale with an iron fist, and renowned for its barren, inhospitable landscape, avowedly heterosexual populace, and compulsory military service. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical population of 14.792 billion OGS are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."
The minute, well-organized government, or what there is of one, juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Welfare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Barksdale Wisdom. The average income tax rate is 5.0%.
The BGDian economy, worth 870 trillion Scratches a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is broadly diversified and led by the Gambling industry, with major contributions from Door-to-door Insurance Sales, Basket Weaving, and Automobile Manufacturing. Average income is 58,848 Scratches, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 4.6 times as much as the poorest.
The BGDian Intelligence Agency relies on internet search engines to know what is happening overseas, recent events in Dàguó have been classified 'for King David Barksdale's eyes only', a stocking with a crooked seam or a tie without a full Windsor knot are grounds for instant dismissal, and young girls often attend the same schools as their children. Crime is moderate, with the police force struggling against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. BGD's national animal is the Bull, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its national religion is Loyalty.
BGD is ranked 229,676th in the world and 3rd in Chinese People Liberation Army for Lowest Crime Rates, with 56.07 law-abiding acts per hour.
