The Federal Republic of Buhariya is a huge, socially progressive nation, renowned for its compulsory military service. The hard-working population of 204 million Buhariyans have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The tiny government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Welfare, and Law & Order. The average income tax rate is 8.7%.

The Buhariyan economy, worth 13.2 trillion Buhars a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Basket Weaving, Beef-Based Agriculture, and Pizza Delivery. Average income is 64,768 Buhars, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.9 times as much as the poorest.

1% of global paper production is bound for the National Archive, the country is governed by a clique of political insiders known colloquially as The Establishment, the nation's faithful often say there is a higher power watching over them, and major cities shut down as their local sports team takes to the field every day. Crime, especially youth-related, is almost non-existent. Buhariya's national animal is the Cat.

Buhariya is ranked 189,179^th in the world and 7,241^st in Osiris for Largest Gambling Industry, scoring zero on the Kelly Criterion Productivity Index.
