The Nomadic Peoples of East-Badlands is a gargantuan, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by The Bad Teacher with an iron fist, and remarkable for its burgeoning dragon population. The hard-nosed, cynical population of 22.56 billion East-Badlandsians are ruled without fear or favor by a psychotic dictator, who outlaws just about everything and refers to the populace as "my little playthings."

The large, moralistic, socially-minded, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Spirituality, Defense, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of East-York. The average income tax rate is 39.2%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The large but underdeveloped East-Badlandsian economy, worth 357 trillion Coins a year, is quite specialized and led by the Basket Weaving industry, with major contributions from Furniture Restoration, Gambling, and Soda Sales. Black market activity is frequent. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 15,826 Coins, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Citizens are enjoying a recent large cut in taxes, Bad Teachings has been named as East-Badlands's national religion, East-Badlands has designated East-York as its capital city, and The Bad Teacher has just been declared ruler of East-Badlands in an international press conference. Crime is relatively low, thanks to a capable police force. East-Badlands's national animal is the dragon, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Bad Teachings.

East-Badlands is ranked 286,109^th in the world and 1^st in Tensons Tavern for Largest Governments, scoring 8.19 on the Bureaucratic Comprehensiveness Rating Scale Index.
