The State of Bourao is a gargantuan, socially progressive nation, notable for its barren, inhospitable landscape, complete lack of public education, and absence of drug laws. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic population of 12.99 billion Bouraoans live in a state of perpetual fear, as a complete breakdown of social order has led to the rise of order through biker gangs.

There is no government in the normal sense of the word; however, a small group of community-minded, liberal, pro-business, outspoken individuals is primarily concerned with Defense, with Industry also on the agenda, while Spirituality and International Aid aren't funded at all. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Capital Heights. Income tax is unheard of.

The strong Bouraoan economy, worth 675 trillion betales a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Pizza Delivery, Furniture Restoration, and Basket Weaving. Average income is 52,023 betales, but there is a vast disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 334,332 per year while the poor average 3,287, a ratio of 101 to 1.

Organ donation rates are among the lowest in the region, punitive tariffs protect local industry, voting is voluntary, and Bourao has designated Capital Heights as its capital city. Crime is a major problem, probably because of the absence of a police force. Bourao's national animal is the deer, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Bourao is ranked 27,138th in the world and 3rd in Indianapolis for Most Stationary, with 1,433.28406186428 days.
