The Democratic Republic of The Batavia is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by President Lars Alexanders with an even hand, and remarkable for its unlimited-speed roads, frequent executions, and rampant corporate plagiarism. The compassionate, democratic population of 13.165 billion Batavians 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 government is primarily concerned with Defense, although Industry, Education, and Law & Order are also considered important, while Spirituality and International Aid are ignored. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Den Haag. The average income tax rate is 57.6%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The all-consuming Batavian economy, worth a remarkable 1,215 trillion Euros a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Trout Farming, and Book Publishing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 92,321 Euros, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The nation's universities are often mistaken for foreign embassies, turning eighteen is often referred to as the 'Age of Aquarius', athletic teenagers are among the wealthiest members of society, and President Lars Alexanders is emphatic that The Batavia's HDI is much higher than it seems (The Batavia has found 1 easter egg). Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. The Batavia's national animal is the Dragon and its national religion is Secularism.

The Batavia is ranked 36,073rd in the world and 4th in Northern Ocean for Largest Cheese Export Sector, scoring 4,640.88 on the Mozzarella Productivity Index.
