The United Queendoms of Belantica is a gargantuan, socially progressive nation, ruled by Queen Katherine with an even hand, and remarkable for its infamous sell-swords, punitive income tax rates, and stringent health and safety legislation. The hard-nosed population of 18.592 billion Belanticans enjoy extensive civil freedoms, particularly in social issues, while business tends to be more regulated.

The enormous, liberal government juggles the competing demands of Healthcare, Education, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Suton. The average income tax rate is 78.0%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Belantic economy, worth a remarkable 2,010 trillion Mons a year, is quite specialized and led by the Book Publishing industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Information Technology, and Automobile Manufacturing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 108,156 Mons, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Wealthy pranksters dump refuse on unsuspecting citizens from up high, traffic jams are a common sight due to construction work from a massive overhaul of the nation's freeways, Belanticans refer to transgender people with insults instead of pronouns, and Queen Katherine's Twitcher account is typically used to share Black-chested Buzzard Eagle memes rather than government policy. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Belantica's national animal is the Black-chested Buzzard Eagle, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Belantica is ranked 41,158th in the world and 25th in The Western Isles for Largest Automobile Manufacturing Sector, scoring 4,596.55 on the Henry Ford Productivity Index.
