The Country of Batavia is a gargantuan, socially progressive nation, ruled by Raedtp Joris van ende tot Nieuw-Luyk with a fair hand, and remarkable for its keen interest in outer space, complete lack of prisons, and sprawling nuclear power plants. The hard-working, democratic population of 24.977 billion Batavians enjoy a sensible mix of personal and economic freedoms, while the political process is open and the people's right to vote held sacrosanct.

The large, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Welfare, Education, and Defense. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Vreedtwijk. The average income tax rate is 42.1%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The strong Batavian economy, worth a remarkable 1,147 trillion guilders a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Cheese Exports industry, with major contributions from Book Publishing, Basket Weaving, and Information Technology. Average income is 45,939 guilders, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.2 times as much as the poorest.

The tenet of free speech is held dear, billions of guilders are being blown on orbital weapons development, Raedtp Joris van ende tot Nieuw-Luyk has just been declared ruler of Batavia in an international press conference, and a major religion has been named as Batavia's national religion. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Batavia's national animal is the lion, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Batavia is ranked 44,741st in the world and 1st in the Kingdom of the Herrebrugh Islands for Most Stationary, with 987.104055753 days.
