The Dominion of Bamboulali is a colossal, efficient nation, ruled by Kirikou Balisto with an even hand, and remarkable for its national health service, multi-spousal wedding ceremonies, and restrictive gun laws. The compassionate, devout population of 6.867 billion Bamboulese 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 medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Education, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Touré. The average income tax rate is 48.7%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The powerhouse Bamboulalian economy, worth 685 trillion claws a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Book Publishing, Retail, and Beef-Based Agriculture. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 99,852 claws, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Kirikou Balisto is called 'Patches' at international summits, lovesick people are told 'it's not them, it's you', pareidolic SETI scientists swear there's a message from aliens hidden within pi, and mountain rescue missions can end with more people lost than found. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Bamboulali's national animal is the raikou leopard, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Animism.

Bamboulali is ranked 167,485th in the world and 11th in Lewisham Library for Most Stationary, with 108.52084721328 days.
