The Mapping Bureau of Borgeschtistan is a gargantuan, socially progressive nation, notable for its daily referendums, public floggings, and sprawling nuclear power plants. The compassionate population of 18.847 billion Borgeschtistanis are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.
It is difficult to tell where the omnipresent, socially-minded government stops and the rest of society begins, but it juggles the competing demands of Education, Environment, and Welfare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Vetelograd. The average income tax rate is 91.2%, and even higher for the wealthy.
The Borgeschtistanian economy, worth a remarkable 1,095 trillion USSD Credits a year, is driven almost entirely by government activity, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is highly specialized, is mostly made up of the Trout Farming industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Gambling. State-owned companies are the norm. Average income is 58,122 USSD Credits, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.
There's nothing special about Leader, the police have been known to wiretap confessional boxes, third world countries are rich in "I Love Vetelograd" t-shirts, and RPG fans reminisce fondly about when people thought they were evil and dangerous rather than geeky and socially inept. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Borgeschtistan's national animal is the Kiwi, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Atheism.
Borgeschtistan is ranked 133,058th in the world and 19th in USSD for Highest Average Incomes, with 58,122.04 Standard Monetary Units.
