The Protectorate of Mr Bennet is a gargantuan, orderly nation, notable for its burgeoning Great Dane population. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical population of 28.686 billion Bennets are rabid consumers, partly through choice and partly because the government tells them to and dissenters tend to vanish from their homes at night.

The medium-sized, well-organized government is dominated by the Department of Industry. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 16.9%.

The thriving a Bennetian economy, worth 848 trillion Pounds a year, is highly specialized and led by the Gambling industry, with major contributions from Door-to-door Insurance Sales, Retail, and Book Publishing. Average income is 29,578 Pounds, with the richest citizens earning 8.9 times as much as the poorest.

Elections have been outlawed. Crime is a serious problem, with the police force struggling against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. Mr Bennet's national animal is the Great Dane, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Mr Bennet is ranked 191,721st in the world and 2nd in Longbourn for Nicest Citizens, with 10.55 average smiles per day.
