The Dexterian Republic of Bawkie is a colossal, safe nation, ruled by Farroq Noufuneyuq with an even hand, and notable for its national health service, restrictive gun laws, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, cheerful population of 9.454 billion Bawkiens are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The large, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Mezqurbha Dzifatfatbawqur. The income tax rate is 100%.

The frighteningly efficient Bawkien economy, worth a remarkable 2,681 trillion Bawks a year, is quite specialized and dominated by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism and Book Publishing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an amazing 283,682 Bawks, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Being Farroq Noufuneyuq has been voted one of the top ten most dangerous jobs, legislators work 24/7 due to an influx of single-issue bills, it takes months to get the proper permits for a child's first tricycle, and printing out government documents requires the approval of at least three admins. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Bawkie's national animal is the cat, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Dexterism.

Bawkie is ranked 176,841^st in the world and 6,484^th in the South Pacific for Largest Manufacturing Sector, scoring 3,880.3 on the Gooback-Jerbs Productivity Index.
