The Protectorate of Bardic Entertainment is a gargantuan, cultured nation, ruled by Elvis with an even hand, and notable for its multi-spousal wedding ceremonies, daily referendums, and vat-grown people. The hard-nosed population of 26.069 billion Bards enjoy extensive civil freedoms, particularly in social issues, while business tends to be more regulated.
The minute, liberal government, or what there is of one, is primarily concerned with Education, although Healthcare, Law & Order, and Industry are also considered important, while Spirituality and Social Policy aren't funded at all. The average income tax rate is 2.0%, but much higher for the wealthy.
The frighteningly efficient Bardic Entertainmentian economy, worth a remarkable 4,930 trillion musics a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing, Arms Manufacturing, and Tourism. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 189,114 musics, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.
Citizens cannot change their light bulbs without approval from an international committee, the law is more interested in punishing crime than preventing it, families waiting for delayed pipe installations hope daily for rain, and creating cardboard imitations of missiles is a new top-secret military project. Crime is totally unknown. Bardic Entertainment's national animal is the bard, which is also the nation's favorite main course.
Bardic Entertainment is ranked 54,818th in the world and 15th in One big Island for Lowest Crime Rates, with 72.93 law-abiding acts per hour.
