The Republic of North Batica is a titanic, efficient nation, ruled by Alren Vos with an even hand, and renowned for its ubiquitous missile silos, compulsory military service, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate population of 18.405 billion North Baticans enjoy extensive civil freedoms, particularly in social issues, while business tends to be more regulated.

The enormous government juggles the competing demands of Healthcare, Education, and Environment. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Fontina. The average income tax rate is 85.3%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient North Batican economy, worth a remarkable 2,153 trillion Batican Marks a year, is quite specialized and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Cheese Exports. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 117,029 Batican Marks, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Grocery stores can be audibly identified by the giggling emerging from them, sweat stains are proof of political acumen, priests are being drafted by the church load, and the government is hoping that medical aid will speak louder than human rights abuses. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. North Batica's national animal is the Eagle, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

North Batica is ranked 18,289^th in the world and 264^th in Europe for Highest Poor Incomes, with 96,262.81 Standard Monetary Units.
