The Snarky Solar Observer of Bhang Bhang Duc is a gargantuan, safe nation, ruled by Salvor Hardin with an even hand, and notable for its keen interest in outer space, multi-spousal wedding ceremonies, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate, humorless population of 40.442 billion Lovecraftians have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The enormous, corrupt government prioritizes Education, with Healthcare, Administration, and Environment also on the agenda, while Spirituality and Defense aren't funded at all. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Four Ecks. The average income tax rate is 99.0%.

The frighteningly efficient Bhang Bhang Ducian economy, worth a remarkable 7,353 trillion Zevons a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is highly specialized, is mostly made up of the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing and Cheese Exports. Average income is an impressive 181,825 Zevons, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Election results are often delayed for weeks to count the expat votes, large sections of Bhang Bhang Duc have been named national reserves to protect the native tribes living there, the government spends more on chasing distant comets than on basic infrastructure, and the police crack down on tax evaders without mercy. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Bhang Bhang Duc's national animal is the Slark, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Drinking Brains SA.

Bhang Bhang Duc is ranked 284,015th in the world and 3,358th in the West Pacific for Most Primitive, scoring -544.39 on the Scary Big Number Scale.
