The People's Republic of Badobubi is a massive, socially progressive nation, ruled by People's Choice Leader Montana Jones with a fair hand, and remarkable for its sprawling nuclear power plants, state-planned economy, and restrictive gun laws. The compassionate, democratic population of 1.583 billion Badobubians 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.

The enormous, socially-minded, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Environment. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Baboudboudibi. The average income tax rate is 92.1%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The all-consuming Badobubian economy, worth 187 trillion Badoes 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 mostly made up of the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Beef-Based Agriculture. Average income is an impressive 118,233 Badoes, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Bemused citizens are encouraged to sing foreign-language hymns of religions they have never heard of, marijuana is legal in the privacy of your own home, children have taken to using semaphore in light of the recent mobile phone ban, and the jails are alive with the sound of birdsong. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Badobubi's national animal is the Wolf, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Badobubi is ranked 20,986^th in the world and 221^st in The Leftist Assembly for Most Cultured, scoring 87 on the Snufflebottom-Wiggendum Pentatonic Scale.
