The Biophilic Paradise of Bjorkikistan is a massive, socially progressive nation, ruled by Bjork with a fair hand, and notable for its museums and concert halls, free-roaming dinosaurs, and absence of drug laws. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful, devout population of 4.786 billion Bjorkians hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.

The government — a sprawling, bureaucracy-choked, liberal, outspoken morass — juggles the competing demands of Administration, Environment, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of This looks like a city. The average income tax rate is 98.2%.

The frighteningly efficient Bjorkikistanian economy, worth 684 trillion Alsemanches a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is highly specialized, is led by the Book Publishing industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Information Technology, and Basket Weaving. Average income is an impressive 143,078 Alsemanches, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

A flying elephant and Bjork share the same nickname, bad punctuation has come to a full stop, basket-weaving is the nation's latest fad, and physics lessons mostly involve talking about emotional management techniques. Crime is totally unknown. Bjorkikistan's national animal is the Bjork, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Big time sensuality.

Bjorkikistan is ranked 286,088th in the world and 6,127th in The North Pacific for Largest Automobile Manufacturing Sector, scoring -15.43 on the Henry Ford Productivity Index.
