The United Cantons of Bergiervile is a massive, socially progressive nation, ruled by Prime Minister Francine Huntingdon with an even hand, and notable for its museums and concert halls, deadly medical pandemics, and exploding hoverboards. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic, devout population of 1.914 billion Bergiervillers are either ruled by a sleek, efficient government or a conglomerate of multinational corporations; it's difficult to tell which.

The tiny, pro-business government prioritizes Industry, although Administration and Education are also considered important, while Social Policy and Environment aren't funded at all. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Laurentien. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 4.8%.

The frighteningly efficient Bergiervilean economy, worth 218 trillion Euros a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Retail industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Beef-Based Agriculture, and Uranium Mining. Average income is an impressive 113,923 Euros, but there is an enormous disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 636,182 per year while the poor average 10,164, a ratio of 62.6 to 1.

Third world countries are rich in "I Love Laurentien" t-shirts, the secret ingredient is love (and MSG), balaclava manufacturers are held criminally culpable for bank heists, and the nation proudly hosts OstraCon to decide who gets free vacations to the Brancaland tundra. Crime is pervasive, with the police force struggling against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. Bergiervile's national animal is the Swan, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its national religion is Lutheranism.

Bergiervile is ranked 269,213^th in the world and 292^nd in Aesica for Most Advanced Law Enforcement, scoring 623.76 on the Orwell Orderliness Index.
