The United Cantons of Bergiervile is a massive, efficient nation, ruled by Prime Minister Frimaire Huntingdon with an even hand, and notable for its daily referendums, avant-garde cinema, and exploding hoverboards. The hard-nosed, hard-working, devout population of 1.5 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 is primarily concerned with Industry, with Administration and Education also on the agenda, while Social Policy and Environment are ignored. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Laurentien. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 4.5%.

The frighteningly efficient Bergiervilean economy, worth 168 trillion marks a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which 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 112,115 marks, but there is an enormous disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 651,087 per year while the poor average 9,147, a ratio of 71.2 to 1.

Urban graffiti is hand-calligraphed in perfectly kerned elegant fonts, both illness and poverty are seen as signs of low moral worth, asylum seekers have voted Bergiervile as best layover destination, and cults that offer eternal life after death to those who follow a self-sacrificing saviour are frowned upon. 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 151,542^nd in the world and 159^th in Aesica for Largest Governments, scoring 11.87 on the Bureaucratic Comprehensiveness Rating Scale Index.
