The Federation of Beron Nilben is a massive, socially progressive nation, ruled by Prime Minister Fred Jensen with a fair hand, and renowned for its keen interest in outer space, national health service, and irreverence towards religion. The compassionate, democratic population of 4.507 billion Beron Nilbens are free to do what they want with their own bodies, and vote for whomever they like in elections; if they go into business, however, they are regulated to within an inch of their lives.

The enormous, liberal, socially-minded, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Port Walter. The average income tax rate is 87.8%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The thriving Beron Nilben economy, worth 415 trillion dollars a year, is quite specialized and mostly made up of the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Trout Farming, Information Technology, and Basket Weaving. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 92,184 dollars, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

There has been a series of riots between local cannibals and health food advocates, Widow Twankey complains about being "cancelled", lavish state dinners in Port Walter are the state's leading budgetary expenditure, and the government seizes private property for the 'good of the people'. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Beron Nilben's national animal is the Trout, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans.

Beron Nilben is ranked 13,944th in the world and 1st in The Great Balls Land II for Highest Foreign Aid Spending, scoring 1,480.03 on the Clooney Contribution Index.
