The Bussy Lovers Heaven of Land of the Bussy Wussyz World but BETER is a massive, socially progressive nation, ruled by Queen Bussy with an even hand, and renowned for its pith helmet sales, punitive income tax rates, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, hard-working population of 2.467 billion Bussy Worshippers have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The large government juggles the competing demands of Healthcare, Education, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of CITY of the Bussy Wussyz World. The average income tax rate is 55.0%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The powerhouse Bussi economy, worth 199 trillion Busscoins a year, is quite specialized and led by the Book Publishing industry, with major contributions from Basket Weaving, Woodchip Exports, and Retail. Average income is 80,804 Busscoins, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Virtual assistants are seen with increasing suspicion every time they get an upgrade, satellite images show safe electoral constituencies in complete darkness, children have lost interest in toy guns in favor of toy meth lab kits, and taxpayer-funded government ads are promoting Brancaland as a premier filming location. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Land of the Bussy Wussyz World but BETER's national animal is the Bussy Hater, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Bussism.

Land of the Bussy Wussyz World but BETER is ranked 87,778th in the world and 112th in Vibonia for Most Scientifically Advanced, scoring 92.74 on the Kurzweil Singularity Index.
