The Snarky Solar Observer of Bhang Bhang Duc is a gargantuan, genial nation, ruled by Salvor Hardin with an even hand, and remarkable for its unlimited-speed roads, anti-smoking policies, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, humorless population of 39.389 billion Lovecraftians 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 enormous, corrupt government prioritizes Education, with Healthcare, Administration, and Environment also on the agenda, while Spirituality and Defense receive no funds. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Four Ecks. The average income tax rate is 98.8%.

The frighteningly efficient Bhang Bhang Ducian economy, worth a remarkable 6,957 trillion Zevons a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is highly specialized, is mostly made up of the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing and Cheese Exports. Average income is an impressive 176,627 Zevons, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

For the sake of 'public interest' news programs tell viewers how to home-make Sarin gas bombs, builders across Bhang Bhang Duc are blocked up with orders for new public loos, produce labels read 'may contain traces of food', and foreign converts are illuminated by both missionaries and helicopter searchlights. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Bhang Bhang Duc's national animal is the Slark, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Drinking Brains SA.

Bhang Bhang Duc is ranked 8,968th in the world and 140th in the West Pacific for Most Cultured, scoring 124 on the Snufflebottom-Wiggendum Pentatonic Scale.
