The Interstellar Union of Bavaristan is a colossal, safe nation, ruled by Jovan Smith with an even hand, and renowned for its anti-smoking policies, free-roaming dinosaurs, and irreverence towards religion. The hard-nosed, humorless population of 7.785 billion Bavaristanis are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The medium-sized, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Administration, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Tiflyang Sector. The average income tax rate is 98.2%.

The frighteningly efficient Bavaristanian economy, worth a remarkable 2,185 trillion Credits a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Uranium Mining, and Beef-Based Agriculture. Average income is an amazing 280,701 Credits, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Citizens simply have to point a weapon at a government official to get what they want, the "swords to plowshares" policy has created a generation of farmers that can kill a yak from 200 yards away, creative compliance measures ensure that high-ranking officials live in luxury while the country's coffers collect cobwebs, and it's illegal to be caught on tape. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Bavaristan's national animal is the Tyranid, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Bavaristan is ranked 9,339^th in the world and 221^st in the South Pacific for Most Advanced Public Education, scoring 11,537.2 on the Edu-tellignce® Test Score.
