The Community of Rainbow Equals of Bavai is a titanic, genial nation, ruled by Representative Vlad with a fair hand, and remarkable for its lack of airports, free-roaming dinosaurs, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, democratic population of 13.919 billion Bavvies 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 medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Welfare, Education, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Celebration. The average income tax rate is 32.3%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The Bavaian economy, worth 674 trillion papels a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Basket Weaving. Black market activity is notable. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 48,427 papels, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Athletic teenagers are among the wealthiest members of society, sports fans complain that cricket tests now last an unbearable ten days, the nation's universities are often mistaken for foreign embassies, and public footpaths are being slowly eroded by the burgeoning number of ramblers. Crime is totally unknown. Bavai's national animal is the bat, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Bavai is ranked 80,284^th in the world and 5^th in Fifth Wall for Highest Drug Use, scoring 215.71 on the Pineapple Fondness Rating.
