The Lush Forests at the River of Bauson is a gargantuan, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Bausonian Chieftain with a fair hand, and notable for its frequent executions, punitive income tax rates, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, democratic population of 16.28 billion Bausonians are free to do what they want with their own bodies, and vote for whomever they like in elections; if they go into business, however, they are regulated to within an inch of their lives.

The enormous, socially-minded, outspoken government prioritizes Welfare, with Education, Healthcare, and Law & Order also on the agenda, while Defense receives no funds. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Orc Stronghold. The average income tax rate is 66.5%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The large but stagnant Bausonian economy, worth 285 trillion Mushrooms a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is quite specialized, is led by the Pizza Delivery industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing, Trout Farming, and Woodchip Exports. Average income is 17,522 Mushrooms, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Orcish Shamanism has been named as Bauson's national religion, Bausonian Chieftain has just been declared ruler of Bauson in an international press conference, Bauson's children are widely acknowledged as the most foul-mouthed in the region, and marijuana is legal in the privacy of your own home. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Bauson's national animal is the Woodpecker, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Orcish Shamanism.

Bauson is ranked 82,205th in the world and 1st in Ebola QuarantineZone for Lowest Crime Rates, with 68.22 law-abiding acts per hour.
