The Republic of Bulveopia is a titanic, cultured nation, ruled by Viko Radenković with an even hand, and renowned for its smutty television, punitive income tax rates, and spontaneously combusting cars. The hard-nosed, cynical, devout population of 12.747 billion Bulveopians 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 medium-sized, corrupt government prioritizes Defense, although Industry, Administration, and Law & Order are also considered important. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Rojanica. The average income tax rate is 58.1%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The all-consuming Bulveopian economy, worth a remarkable 1,537 trillion Zuses a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is a slick, highly efficient, broadly diversified black market in Arms Manufacturing, Retail, Soda Sales, and Uranium Mining. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is an impressive 120,606 Zuses, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.4 times as much as the poorest.

The government invades its allies more than its enemies, politicians cheer the nation's surging death rate, what's in your genes matters more than what's in your jeans, and birds and children's kites are regularly brought down by anti-aircraft fire. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Bulveopia's national animal is the Fox, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Bulveopia is ranked 65,509th in the world and 1st in The Red Fox Pact for Most Developed, scoring 72.54 on the Human Development Index.
