The Holy Empire of Belgioca is a massive, orderly nation, ruled by Xander von Bubbanburg with an iron fist, and remarkable for its strictly enforced bedtime, complete lack of prisons, and suspicion of poets. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless, devout population of 1.318 billion Belgiociuans are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."
The enormous, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government prioritizes Defense, with Administration, Law & Order, and Industry also on the agenda. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Bubbanburg. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 75.2%.
The frighteningly efficient Belgiocuan economy, worth 136 trillion Belgioks a year, is led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Woodchip Exports, and Beef-Based Agriculture. Black market activity is extensive. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 103,436 Belgioks, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 339,210 per year while the poor average 23,671, a ratio of 14.3 to 1.
The institution of marriage is held sacred and strictly enforced, the nation is automatically assumed to be the source of all unmarked weapons, the masses are surrendering their civil liberties without complaint for the sake of shopping convenience, and handling people's data is proving an immersive experience. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Belgioca's national animal is the Black striped tiger, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Christianity.
Belgioca is ranked 131,164th in the world and 2,518th in The North Pacific for Largest Insurance Industry, scoring 1,427.25 on the Risk Expulsion Effectiveness Rating.
