The Lucky Green Realm of Bosque de la Madre is a gargantuan, safe nation, renowned for its ban on automobiles, punitive income tax rates, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful, devout population of 15.308 billion Guardabosques are free to do what they want with their own bodies, and vote for whomever they like in elections; if they go into business, however, they are regulated to within an inch of their lives.

The government — a sprawling, bureaucracy-choked, liberal, socially-minded, outspoken morass — juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Welfare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Valle Verde. The average income tax rate is 97.4%.

The frighteningly efficient Bosqueno economy, worth a remarkable 1,966 trillion Greenleaves 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 led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Information Technology. Average income is an impressive 128,461 Greenleaves, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Living well is no longer the best kind of revenge, counselors have to sign pledges supporting gay rights before they can speak to any patients, candlelit dinners are less romantic with a flickering LED, and the media seems excessively interested in what Leader is wearing this season. Crime is totally unknown. Bosque de la Madre's national animal is the Red Wolf, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Bosque de la Madre is ranked 6,093rd in the world and 177th in The East Pacific for Safest, scoring 128.2 on the Bubble-Rapp Safety Rating.
