The Vampire Slayer of Buffy is a titanic, cultured nation, remarkable for its museums and concert halls, avowedly heterosexual populace, and ubiquitous missile silos. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic, devout population of 10.797 billion Buffyians 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 Spirituality. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Sunnydale. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 17.6%.

The strong Buffyian economy, worth 616 trillion dollars a year, is quite specialized and led by the Gambling industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Beef-Based Agriculture, and Door-to-door Insurance Sales. Average income is 57,085 dollars, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 161,366 per year while the poor average 16,156, a ratio of 10.0 to 1.

Brancalandian Brie isn't available anywhere in Buffy, adult magazines are having a sales resurgence as internet anonymity disappears, the Buffyian Arts Council pays teenagers to sit through opera performances, and things are looking up for patients accidentally prescribed erectile dysfunction medication. Crime, especially youth-related, is almost non-existent, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Buffy's national animal is the vampire, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Buffy is ranked 182,067th in the world and 8th in Founderless for Most Developed, scoring 53.44 on the Human Development Index.
