The State of Bang Julo is a titanic, socially progressive nation, ruled by the Governor with a fair hand, and notable for its keen interest in outer space, public floggings, and frequent executions. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic population of 22.586 billion Bang Juloans enjoy a sensible mix of personal and economic freedoms, while the political process is open and the people's right to vote held sacrosanct.

The relatively small government juggles the competing demands of Education, Law & Order, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Westminster. The average income tax rate is 16.9%.

The Bang Juloan economy, worth a remarkable 1,323 trillion betales a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Pizza Delivery, Cheese Exports, and Door-to-door Insurance Sales. Average income is 58,604 betales, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.6 times as much as the poorest.

Excited shovel-bearing geeks wander the countryside, sullen teenagers in bright orange 'community payback' onesies can be seen picking litter at the roadside, rural citizens live in terror of their local village constable, and the government's official stance on religion is that it is so very silly. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. Bang Julo's national animal is the deer, which can occasionally be seen sifting through garbage in the nation's cities.

Bang Julo is ranked 128,409^th in the world and 2^nd in The Gambia for Most Cultured, scoring 64 on the Snufflebottom-Wiggendum Pentatonic Scale.
