The Kingdom of Bolrieg is a gargantuan, orderly nation, ruled by High King Hegrod Karlolov IX with an iron fist, and renowned for its deadly medical pandemics, public floggings, and avowedly heterosexual populace. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless, devout population of 16.356 billion Bolriegians 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 tiny, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Industry, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Shadforad. Income tax is unheard of.

The frighteningly efficient Bolriegian economy, worth a remarkable 5,492 trillion wagglefleebes a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Uranium Mining, Information Technology, and Woodchip Exports. Black market activity is extensive. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an amazing 335,800 wagglefleebes, but there is a large disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 1,484,476 per year while the poor average 47,520, a ratio of 31.2 to 1.

Bigtopian relations have become a minefield, pharmaceutical companies emphatically promise that "your pills are in the mail" rather than admit any supply shortfall, beating enemies to death with a baseball bat is legal if done within nine innings, and supermarkets must refund spoilt milk even six months after the sale. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, despite the fact that it is difficult to make it through a day without breaking one of the country's many laws. Bolrieg's national animal is the mongfish, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Bolriegian Orthodoxy.

Bolrieg is ranked 3,372^nd in the world and 2^nd in Kali Yuga for Largest Black Market, with 748 trillion Standard Monetary Units.
