The Republic of Belleny Ven is a massive, safe nation, notable for its barren, inhospitable landscape, public floggings, and irreverence towards religion. The hard-nosed, hard-working population of 1.147 billion Belleny Venians enjoy extensive civil freedoms, particularly in social issues, while business tends to be more regulated.

The medium-sized, liberal government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Welfare. The average income tax rate is 31.4%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The Belleny Venian economy, worth 41.0 trillion pesos a year, is led by the Woodchip Exports industry, with major contributions from Gambling, Furniture Restoration, and Pizza Delivery. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 35,721 pesos, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.1 times as much as the poorest.

Tourists visit Belleny Ven to mass-moon Belleny Venian politicians, the population's jaw muscles put sharks to shame, the nation's counterintelligence budget is all up in the air, and bus ads propagandize causes ranging from sexual revolution to religious pogroms. Crime is relatively low, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Belleny Ven's national animal is the leopard, which can occasionally be seen sifting through garbage in the nation's cities.

Belleny Ven is ranked 184,073^rd in the world and 8,066^th in Balder for Lowest Crime Rates, with 58.08 law-abiding acts per hour.
