The People's Republic of Buushi is a colossal, safe nation, ruled by Supreme Leader with an even hand, and notable for its parental licensing program, pith helmet sales, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate population of 6.214 billion Buushans are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The enormous, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Healthcare, Defense, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Goso. The average income tax rate is 90.3%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The very strong Buushian economy, worth 516 trillion dollars a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is quite specialized, is led by the Book Publishing industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Tourism, and Basket Weaving. Average income is 83,084 dollars, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Community-designed sword prostheses are becoming dangerously common, elections have become procedural nightmares due to voters persistently rejecting candidates, 4-year-olds are often found reminiscing about the 'good old days', and bemused schoolkids colour in their favourite quadratic equations with crayons. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Buushi's national animal is the shark, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans.

Buushi is ranked 3,979^th in the world and 88^th in The East Pacific for Highest Foreign Aid Spending, scoring 3,057.57 on the Clooney Contribution Index.
