The Holy Empire of West Bassonien is a massive, efficient nation, ruled by Larry Moon with an even hand, and remarkable for its digital currency, complete lack of prisons, and stringent health and safety legislation. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic population of 2.596 billion West Bassonienians have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.
The relatively small, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Education, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Lasse Holm City. The average income tax rate is 27.1%.
The frighteningly efficient West Bassonienian economy, worth 419 trillion cannelonis a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Retail, and Book Publishing. Black market activity is rampant. Average income is an impressive 161,432 cannelonis, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.0 times as much as the poorest.
Cyber-crime and tin-foil hat sales are both increasing at record rates, a cat may look at a king and a dude can look at an ass, consuming ecstasy is a common rite of passage, and sales of disinfectant wipes have skyrocketed. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. West Bassonien's national animal is the poison spider, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is La bussola Pompeij.
West Bassonien is ranked 287,272nd in the world and 9,822nd in Osiris for Most Stationary, with 4.164233446 days.
