The Federation of La Baja California is a huge, safe nation, notable for its compulsory military service, irreverence towards religion, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, democratic population of 430 million Bajacalifornianos enjoy a sensible mix of personal and economic freedoms, while the political process is open and the people's right to vote held sacrosanct.

The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Education, Healthcare, and Welfare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Nuevo Tecate. The average income tax rate is 33.2%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The strong Bajacalifornian economy, worth 28.2 trillion Brazoes a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Door-to-door Insurance Sales, and Arms Manufacturing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 65,605 Brazoes, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The Bajacalifornian Arts Council pays teenagers to sit through opera performances, televangelists flaunt their expensive cars when they attend charity events, wind farms are erected on shuttered oil platforms, and many are asking why the latest naval vessel is named after Saint Bartholomeus the Many Handed. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. La Baja California's national animal is the Bighorn Sheep, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

La Baja California is ranked 25,806^th in the world and 988^th in The North Pacific for Most Cheerful Citizens, with 52.91 Percentage Of Water Glasses Perceived Half-Full.
