The Federation of Budooland is a very large, safe nation, renowned for its barren, inhospitable landscape, compulsory military service, and irreverence towards religion. The hard-working population of 272 million Budoolanders have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The relatively small government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Welfare. The average income tax rate is 17.2%.

The strong Budoolandian economy, worth 14.9 trillion Coins a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Uranium Mining industry, with major contributions from Gambling, Book Publishing, and Arms Manufacturing. Average income is 54,803 Coins, with the richest citizens earning 5.3 times as much as the poorest.

Organ donation rates are among the lowest in the region, the country's famous rainforests are being bulldozed by the mining industry, Brancaland has gifted over nine thousand putrid moose carcasses to Budooland as a reminder of their "special relationship", and scientists regularly clone human beings for research purposes. Crime, especially youth-related, is well under control, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Budooland's national animal is the Quokka, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Budooland is ranked 178,830^th in the world and 1,640^th in the West Pacific for Highest Poor Incomes, with 22,175.93 Standard Monetary Units.
