The Rightful People's Union of Barleigh is a massive, socially progressive nation, ruled by Johnson Rauben with a fair hand, and renowned for its barren, inhospitable landscape, free-roaming dinosaurs, and absence of drug laws. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic population of 4.581 billion Barlians hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.

The relatively small, liberal, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Healthcare, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Keyfoord. The average income tax rate is 17.9%.

The thriving Barleighian economy, worth 336 trillion Barleigh Bitcoins a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Pizza Delivery, Basket Weaving, and Book Publishing. Average income is 73,479 Barleigh Bitcoins, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.4 times as much as the poorest.

Clowns are being rounded up and admitted to mental institutions, many friends and relatives of Johnson Rauben have been given ambassador jobs in tropical island nations, Barleighian-made cars tend to catch fire in people's driveways, and anti-government political posters adorn every building like wallpaper. Crime, especially youth-related, is almost non-existent, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Barleigh's national animal is the crocodile, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to heavy metals seepage into national waterways, and its national religion is Ethnicalism.

Barleigh is ranked 244,240^th in the world and 5^th in Tradeborough Straits for Most Pacifist, with 28.71 cheeks turned per day.
