The Most Serene Republic of Bel Falas is a massive, cultured nation, ruled by the Steward with an even hand, and notable for its free-roaming dinosaurs, compulsory military service, and irreverence towards religion. The compassionate population of 4.658 billion Bel Falasians enjoy extensive civil freedoms, particularly in social issues, while business tends to be more regulated.

The large government juggles the competing demands of Education, Healthcare, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Dimrill Dale. The average income tax rate is 67.3%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The all-consuming Bel Falasian economy, worth 540 trillion castars a year, is led by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing, Retail, and Basket Weaving. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an impressive 115,938 castars, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Loud Patriotic Music Day has been ranked the seventh best new holiday of the year, parking lots are littered with coffee cups and doughnut crumbs, residents of new housing subdivisions complain about the total absence of supermarkets and restaurants, and it's best not to ask what goes into Dimrill Dale Fried Chicken's secret blend of herbs and spices. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Bel Falas's national animal is the mearas, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is whichever damn religion you please.

Bel Falas is ranked 47,897^th in the world and 58^th in Karma for Most Subsidized Industry, scoring 4,070.89 on the Gilded Widget Scale.
