The Federal Republic of Bumfukia is a massive, environmentally stunning nation, remarkable for its complete lack of prisons, otherworldly petting zoo, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, democratic population of 1.526 billion Bumfukians love a good election, and the government gives them plenty of them. Universities tend to be full of students debating the merits of various civil and political rights, while businesses are tightly regulated and the wealthy viewed with suspicion.

The large government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Welfare. The average income tax rate is 86.8%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Bumfukian economy, worth 194 trillion ducats a year, is quite specialized and mostly made up of the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Beef-Based Agriculture, and Book Publishing. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an impressive 127,611 ducats, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The official Bumfukian Phrase Book weighs as much as a small child, nuclear physics is the most popular course at university, religious organizations are being forced to leave the country or pay income taxes like everybody else, and meat-eating is frowned upon. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Bumfukia's national animal is the barnacle, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Bumfukia is ranked 10,415^th in the world and 612^th in The North Pacific for Best Weather, with 214 Meters Of Sunlight.
