The Principality of Bienenhalde is a gargantuan, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Prince Anselm with an even hand, and renowned for its otherworldly petting zoo, parental licensing program, and keen interest in outer space. The compassionate, cheerful, devout population of 15.426 billion Bienenhalders are prohibited from doing almost everything except voting, which they do timidly and conservatively.
The government — a sprawling, bureaucracy-choked, corrupt, socially-minded morass — juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Administration, and Education. The income tax rate is 100%.
The frighteningly efficient Bienenhaldish economy, worth a remarkable 4,045 trillion Marks a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is highly specialized, is mostly made up of the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Basket Weaving and Information Technology. Average income is an amazing 262,263 Marks, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.
Dogs are encouraged to confront the psychodynamic roots of their desire to be "good boys", graffiti artists spend lengthy periods of time in jail, men are finding 'she spots' more easily but they can't use them, and it's surprisingly hard to find pictures of the bad haircuts from Prince Anselm's childhood. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Bienenhalde's national animal is the honey bee, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Pietistic Lutheranism.
Bienenhalde is ranked 93rd in the world and 1st in Vaporwave Paradise for Lowest Crime Rates, with 288.74 law-abiding acts per hour.
