The NationStates ~~TYPE~~ of A Badly Conceived Designation is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by ~~LEADER~~ with an even hand, and renowned for its teetotalling pirates, multi-spousal wedding ceremonies, and daily referendums. The hard-nosed, humorless, devout population of 18.382 billion ~~DEMONYMNOUNPLURAL~~ are prohibited from doing almost everything except voting, which they do timidly and conservatively.

The medium-sized, corrupt, moralistic government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Industry, and Defense. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of ~~CAPITAL~~. The average income tax rate is 18.8%.

The frighteningly efficient ~~DEMONYMADJECTIVE~~ economy, worth a remarkable 3,283 trillion ~~CURRENCY~~s a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is an enormous, deeply entrenched, quite specialized black market in Woodchip Exports, Arms Manufacturing, Uranium Mining, and Furniture Restoration. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is an impressive 178,645 ~~CURRENCY~~s, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.0 times as much as the poorest.

A small country is wondering where their capitol building's gold dome went, the parliament building has installed a revolving door, conscripts often volunteer for a second tour of duty so they can get a ticket to next year's Army Revue, and ~~DEMONYMADJECTIVE~~ politicians spend a lot of time praising East Lebatuckese policies these days. Crime is so common that it is unusual to encounter someone following the law, perhaps because of the country's complete lack of prisons. A Badly Conceived Designation's national animal is the ~~ANIMAL~~, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its national religion is ~~FAITH~~.

A Badly Conceived Designation is ranked 294,269^th in the world and 35^th in Testregionia for Lowest Crime Rates, with 1.86 law-abiding acts per hour.
