The Democratic Republic of Bodhisva is a massive, socially progressive nation, renowned for its free-roaming dinosaurs, punitive income tax rates, and compulsory gun ownership. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful, devout population of 3.926 billion Bodhisvans 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 large government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Still Waters. The average income tax rate is 98.3%.

The frighteningly efficient Bodhisvan economy, worth 829 trillion dollars a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector is led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Arms Manufacturing, and Book Publishing. Average income is an amazing 211,225 dollars, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Rebuilding efforts for a recently destroyed cathedral aren't expected to be completed for another century, communists in Bodhisva note that wealth should be equal but that some should have more of that equality than others, people seem disproportionately distraught when told a museum has a phones-off policy, and euthanasia is illegal. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Bodhisva's national animal is the yak, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Mahāyāna Buddhism.

Bodhisva is ranked 283,539th in the world and 6,073rd in The North Pacific for Largest Automobile Manufacturing Sector, scoring -13.71 on the Henry Ford Productivity Index.
