The People's Overlordship of Bulw is a mammoth, efficient nation, ruled by Loji with an iron fist, and remarkable for its daily referendums, multi-spousal wedding ceremonies, and compulsory gun ownership. The compassionate, cynical, humorless, devout population of 8.845 billion Freiheit ist scheibes are ruled by a mostly-benevolent dictator, who grants the populace the freedom to live their own lives but watches carefully for anyone to slip up.

The medium-sized, corrupt, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Seleukia. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 72.9%.

The frighteningly efficient Bulwian economy, worth a remarkable 2,077 trillion Civic Rubles a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Furniture Restoration, and Woodchip Exports. Black market activity is rampant. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an amazing 234,886 Civic Rubles, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 850,933 per year while the poor average 46,224, a ratio of 18.4 to 1.

Traffic cops spend most of their work-hours calculating citizens' monthly income, racehorses move a lot slower these days, certain national parks offer tanning beds because the visitors never go outside, and every new toxic waste dump comes with a seal of approval from the government's science advisor. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Bulw's national animal is the T-Rex, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Astralism.

Bulw is ranked 321,354th in the world and 26th in Merciam for Safest, scoring 6.03 on the Bubble-Rapp Safety Rating.
