The Sacred Lands of Bisofeyr is a huge, genial nation, ruled by Magus Regent Delfi Quix with a fair hand, and notable for its complete lack of prisons, fear of technology, and restrictive gun laws. The compassionate, democratic, devout population of 857 million Bisofeyri love a good election, and the government gives them plenty of them. Universities tend to be full of students debating the merits of various civil and political rights, while businesses are tightly regulated and the wealthy viewed with suspicion.

It is difficult to tell where the omnipresent, socially-minded, outspoken government stops and the rest of society begins, but it prioritizes Welfare, with Spirituality, Environment, and Healthcare also on the agenda. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Lunsel. The average income tax rate is 81.6%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The sizeable but sluggish Bisofeyri economy, worth 20.6 trillion Bis a year, is driven almost entirely by government activity, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is highly specialized, is mostly made up of the Basket Weaving industry, with significant contributions from Soda Sales and Retail. State-owned companies are the norm. Average income is 24,091 Bis, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

All recreational drugs are legal, dubiously qualified East Lebatuckese doctors prescribe ice baths as a treatment for pneumonia, Bisofeyri submit requests for a date in writing with an enclosed RSVP card, and the mob vote is a crucial electoral demographic. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Bisofeyr's national animal is the Bisofeyri Panthera, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Bisofeyr is ranked 281,386th in the world and 308th in Forest for Largest Publishing Industry, scoring -9.82 on the Bella Potter Productivity e-Index.
