The Most Serene Republic of Beekrat is a mammoth, efficient nation, renowned for its barren, inhospitable landscape and spontaneously combusting cars. The hard-working, democratic population of 9.442 billion Beekratians are effectively ruled by a group of massive corporations, who run for political office and provide their well-off citizens with world-class goods and services. Their poorer citizens, however, are mostly starving to death while being urged to go out and get real jobs. The populace has reasonably extensive civil rights, although these are mostly aimed at allowing them to buy whatever they like.

The tiny, pro-business, outspoken government prioritizes Defense, with Public Transport, Education, and Law & Order also on the agenda, while International Aid and Spirituality receive no funds. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 7.3%.

The very strong Beekratian economy, worth 467 trillion kronor a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is fairly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Uranium Mining, Trout Farming, and Book Publishing. Average income is 49,496 kronor, but there is a large disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 256,692 per year while the poor average 5,171, a ratio of 49.6 to 1.

Crime is a serious problem, with the police force struggling against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. Beekrat's national animal is the penguin, which can occasionally be seen avoiding garbage in the nation's murky oceans.

Beekrat is ranked 151,577^th in the world and 70^th in Equestria for Most Cultured, scoring 64 on the Snufflebottom-Wiggendum Pentatonic Scale.
