The Glorious Kingdom of North Bernia is a massive, safe nation, ruled by Byleth with an iron fist, and notable for its anti-smoking policies, enslaved workforce, and stringent health and safety legislation. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless, devout population of 1.804 billion North Bernians are ruled with an iron fist by the dictatorship government, which ensures that no-one outside the party gets too rich. In their personal lives, however, citizens are relatively unoppressed; it remains to be seen whether this is because the government genuinely cares about its people, or if it hasn't gotten around to stamping out civil rights yet.

The large, corrupt, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Garreg Mach. The average income tax rate is 77.9%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient North Bernian economy, worth 248 trillion Bernie Badges a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Uranium Mining, and Door-to-door Insurance Sales. Black market activity is extensive. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 137,756 Bernie Badges, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.6 times as much as the poorest.

The horniness of the great-horned Bunny is considered a national priority, former state leaders include a TV comic and a cowboy actor, immigrants are required to salute the flag five times a day, and meat prices are soaring as the farming industry struggle under government-imposed restrictions. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. North Bernia's national animal is the Bunny, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its national religion is Bernadetta Simping.

North Bernia is ranked 9,150^th in the world and 302^nd in The East Pacific for Most Corrupt Governments, with 112.75 kickbacks per hour.
