The Eldorian Nation-State of Berwald is a colossal, efficient nation, ruled by Jessica Lucas with a fair hand, and remarkable for its barren, inhospitable landscape, complete lack of prisons, and public floggings. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic, devout population of 3.692 billion Berwaldians hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.

The large, liberal, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Spirituality, Welfare, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Martinique. The average income tax rate is 52.9%.

The very strong Berwaldian economy, worth 275 trillion demiagans a year, is fairly diversified and dominated by the Trout Farming industry, with significant contributions from Cheese Exports, Uranium Mining, and Arms Manufacturing. Average income is 74,587 demiagans, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 4.1 times as much as the poorest.

The alarmingly racist TV show 'Bigtopians Say the Darndest Things' is a hit, some of the country's most famous photographers are animals, the nation's air force consists of strongly-worded letters folded into paper airplanes, and torture is illegal. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Berwald's national animal is the Blue Heron, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to toxic air pollution, and its national religion is Nondenominational Christianity.

Berwald is ranked 170,037th in the world and 12th in Federation of Eldoria for Largest Manufacturing Sector, scoring 7,255.2 on the Gooback-Jerbs Productivity Index.
