The Pepperoni Principality of BEEF KING CHINESE RESTAURANT is a huge, orderly nation, renowned for its complete lack of prisons, free-roaming dinosaurs, and absence of drug laws. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless population of 518 million BEEF KING CHINESE RESTAURANTians are ruled with an iron fist by the corrupt, dictatorship government, which oppresses anyone who isn't on the board of a Fortune 500 company. Large corporations tend to be above the law, and use their financial clout to gain ever-increasing government benefits at the expense of the poor and unemployed.

The relatively small, corrupt, well-organized government prioritizes Defense, although Industry, Law & Order, and Administration are also considered important, while Education and Welfare aren't funded at all. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Beefandbroccolopolis. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 9.0%.

The frighteningly efficient BEEF KING CHINESE RESTAURANTian economy, worth 65.0 trillion tsoes a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Retail industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Gambling, and Uranium Mining. Black market activity is frequent. Average income is an impressive 125,502 tsoes, but there is an enormous disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 795,085 per year while the poor average 8,241, a ratio of 96.5 to 1.

Road rage is rarer but more terminal now that many people drive fully-operational battle tanks to work, the most ambitious parents buy a dozen lottery scratch-cards each week for their kids, the Great Pyramid of Beefandbroccolopolis can be seen from miles away, and one of the nation's leading exports is empty platitudes. Crime is a serious problem, perhaps because of the country's complete lack of prisons. BEEF KING CHINESE RESTAURANT's national animal is the sea slug, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to heavy metals seepage into national waterways.

BEEF KING CHINESE RESTAURANT is ranked 33,159th in the world and 616th in the Rejected Realms for Most Advanced Defense Forces, scoring 6,642.44 on the Total War Preparedness Rating.
