The Republic of Batreau is a massive, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Travis Jenkinson with a fair hand, and remarkable for its museums and concert halls, irreverence towards religion, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate, democratic population of 3.728 billion Batreauans 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 large government juggles the competing demands of Welfare, Education, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Cruzau. The average income tax rate is 68.0%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The powerhouse Batreauan economy, worth 277 trillion Batreauvian Dollars a year, is highly specialized and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Book Publishing and Information Technology. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 74,543 Batreauvian Dollars, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Major cities shut down as their local sports team takes to the field every day, professional athletes can't see balls amid the deluge of advertisements, 100-year-old politicians are now a thing of the past, and the nation's universities are often mistaken for foreign embassies. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Batreau's national animal is the Horse, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Batreau is ranked 132,465^th in the world and 1,106^th in The East Pacific for Largest Populations, with 3.73 billion capita.
