The Somewhat Insane Country of Bearslavania is a colossal, efficient nation, ruled by grand ursus with an iron fist, and renowned for its anti-smoking policies, ubiquitous missile silos, and zero percent divorce rate. The compassionate, cynical, devout population of 5.237 billion Bearslavanians are ruled with an iron fist by the dictatorship government, which ensures that no-one outside the party gets too rich. In their personal lives, however, citizens are relatively unoppressed; it remains to be seen whether this is because the government genuinely cares about its people, or if it hasn't gotten around to stamping out civil rights yet.

The enormous, corrupt, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Defense, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of bearland. The average income tax rate is 84.7%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The all-consuming Bearslavanian economy, worth 525 trillion Berries a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is quite specialized, is led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Pizza Delivery, and Furniture Restoration. Average income is an impressive 100,364 Berries, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The nation's new foreign policy of 'very disproportionate retribution' has its neighbors on edge, conscripts often volunteer for a second tour of duty so they can get a ticket to next year's Army Revue, citizens live in superstitious fear of the mysterious glowing clouds that float over Bearslavania, and getting an abortion takes less hassle than writing a letter. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Bearslavania's national animal is the Bear, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Bearniness.

Bearslavania is ranked 107,614th in the world and 1,276th in Balder for Most Stationary, with 380.3692357302 days.
