The Honey Company of Holy Acarn is a massive, cultured nation, ruled by Chief Bee Keeper Bunker Snake with an even hand, and remarkable for its stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, democratic population of 3.057 billion Bee keepers enjoy extensive civil freedoms, particularly in social issues, while business tends to be more regulated.

The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Environment. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Hive 433. The average income tax rate is 38.9%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The a Bee keeper economy, worth 137 trillion Honeys a year, is led by the Book Publishing industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Uranium Mining, and Tourism. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 44,951 Honeys, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Document forgery is a critical skill for would-be politicians, middle-aged metal fans quite enjoy being called "rebellious youths" by even older politicians, it's all quiet on the western front, and Chief Bee Keeper Bunker Snake's recent "I have a dream that we will fight them by raking muck on the beaches" speech seems a little derivative to many. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Holy Acarn's national animal is the Snake Bees, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Honey.

Holy Acarn is ranked 74,598^th in the world and 35^th in Hive for Most Advanced Public Education, scoring 2,888.24 on the Edu-tellignce® Test Score.
