The Dictatorship of Bully Elite is a huge, safe nation, renowned for its barren, inhospitable landscape and suspicion of poets. The democratic population of 816 million Bully Eliteans enjoy a sensible mix of personal and economic freedoms, while the political process is open and the people's right to vote held sacrosanct.

The relatively small, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Education, and Healthcare. The average income tax rate is 17.9%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The Bully Elitean economy, worth 37.9 trillion Lungmen Dollars a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Uranium Mining, and Beef-Based Agriculture. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 46,494 Lungmen Dollars, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.7 times as much as the poorest.

Voting for pro-Bigtopian candidates is voluntary, army rations are served on silver platters, disadvantaged neighbourhoods have become no-go areas after sundown, and the government is spending billions of taxpayer Lungmen Dollars to support "struggling" industries. Crime is relatively low. Bully Elite's national animal is the Lungmen, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Bully Elite is ranked 162,218^th in the world and 26^th in Lungmen for Highest Unexpected Death Rate, scoring 31.89 on the Bus Surprisal Index.
