The Confederacy of Busyrussian is a tiny, orderly nation, notable for its barren, inhospitable landscape, compulsory military service, and public floggings. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical population of 7 million Busyrussianians are ruled with an iron fist by the corrupt, dictatorship government, which oppresses anyone who isn't on the board of a Fortune 500 company. Large corporations tend to be above the law, and use their financial clout to gain ever-increasing government benefits at the expense of the poor and unemployed.

The tiny, moralistic, pro-business, well-organized government prioritizes Law & Order, although Defense, Healthcare, and Administration are also considered important, while Spirituality and International Aid aren't funded at all. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 7.4%.

The very strong Busyrussianian economy, worth 456 billion belarusian rubles a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Woodchip Exports, Uranium Mining, and Book Publishing. Average income is 65,242 belarusian rubles, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 203,279 per year while the poor average 16,090, a ratio of 12.6 to 1.

Teddy bears and pajamas have replaced briefcases and suits in Busyrussian's offices, military pilots spend more time scraping feathers off their engines than flying their aircraft, customs officers pretend not to hear shouts of "HELP LET ME OUT!" emerging from diplomatic bags, and Busyrussianian doors require a Ph.D. to open. Crime is moderate, possibly because it is difficult to make it through a day without breaking one of the country's many regulations. Busyrussian's national animal is the bison, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Busyrussian is ranked 296,789th in the world and 82nd in Timoria for Largest Welfare Programs, scoring 94.15 on the Safety Net Mesh Density Rating.
