The Dominion of Based Peeps is a massive, genial nation, ruled by Based Leader with a fair hand, and notable for its compulsory military service, irreverence towards religion, and absence of drug laws. The compassionate, hard-working, democratic population of 3.956 billion Based Peepsians hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.

The relatively small, outspoken government prioritizes Education, with Defense, Welfare, and Administration also on the agenda, while Spirituality receives no funds. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Based Capital. The average income tax rate is 16.0%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The Based Peepsian economy, worth 248 trillion Mad Cashes a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Trout Farming industry, with major contributions from Retail, Cheese Exports, and Beef-Based Agriculture. Average income is 62,805 Mad Cashes, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.3 times as much as the poorest.

Real power lies not in the debating room but with those who decide what is debated, political cartoons depicting Based Leader's face on a Humans's buttocks are selling like hotcakes, exorbitant spending on icebreakers breaks the ice at every budget meeting, and the nation's counterintelligence budget is all up in the air. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. Based Peeps's national animal is the Humans, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Based Peeps is ranked 101,444th in the world and 5,220th in Balder for Lowest Crime Rates, with 65.68 law-abiding acts per hour.
