The Delicious Republic of Buttery Biscuits is a mammoth, socially progressive nation, ruled by Councilor Flaky with a fair hand, and remarkable for its pith helmet sales and stringent health and safety legislation. The democratic population of 5.669 billion Buttery Biscuitsians are free to do what they want with their own bodies, and vote for whomever they like in elections; if they go into business, however, they are regulated to within an inch of their lives.

The large, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Welfare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Gravy Boat. The average income tax rate is 45.1%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The large but underdeveloped Buttery Biscuitsian economy, worth 178 trillion lards a year, is led by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Trout Farming, and Uranium Mining. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 31,513 lards, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Political gridlock ensues as even the most innocuous legislation is vetoed by the Supreme Court for potential civil rights violations, edutainment video games are taking Buttery Biscuits's students to the next level, the blind lead the blind in social welfare, and large sections of Buttery Biscuits have been named national reserves to protect the native tribes living there. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Buttery Biscuits's national animal is the bobcat, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Baking.

Buttery Biscuits is ranked 121,807^th in the world and 6^th in T2R for Most Eco-Friendly Governments, scoring 649.93 on the Dolphin Recycling Awareness Index.
