The Equatorial Forests of Uan aa Boa is a gargantuan, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Adema Pula with an iron fist, and renowned for its state-planned economy, smutty television, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, cynical, humorless population of 13.906 billion Boanis 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 relatively small, socially-minded government is effectively ruled by the Department of Environment, with Education 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 Aa. The average income tax rate is 7.9%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The all-consuming Boani economy, worth 913 trillion labour notes a year, is driven almost entirely by government activity, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector is mostly comprised of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, although the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is 65,668 labour notes, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Ministers browse Alright! magazine for fashion tips, Eau de Trashcan has become a wildly popular perfume, community organizers have given up going door to door because nobody is home, and Adema Pula has been nicknamed 'Robomop'. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Uan aa Boa's national animal is the solidarity bird, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Uan aa Boa is ranked 259,160th in the world and 272nd in Forest for Most Cultured, scoring 62 on the Snufflebottom-Wiggendum Pentatonic Scale.
