The Queendom of Nubukalou is a gargantuan, socially progressive nation, notable for its irreverence towards religion, complete absence of social welfare, and spontaneously combusting cars. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic population of 10.55 billion Nubukalouans live in a state of perpetual fear, as a complete breakdown of social order has led to the rise of order through biker gangs.

The minute, liberal, pro-business, outspoken government, or what there is of one, juggles the competing demands of Defense, Education, and Healthcare. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 4.1%.

The strong Nubukalouan economy, worth 700 trillion betales a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Book Publishing, Arms Manufacturing, and Woodchip Exports. Average income is 66,354 betales, but there is a vast disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 429,522 per year while the poor average 4,110, a ratio of 104 to 1.

Employers may fire workers without giving any reason and the latest Harry Potter book is a bestseller. Crime is a major problem, probably because of the absence of a police force. Nubukalou's national animal is the deer, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Nubukalou is ranked 73,843rd in the world and 1st in Suva for Most Scientifically Advanced, scoring 104.64 on the Kurzweil Singularity Index.
