The Dominion of Byzavarlty is a large, orderly nation, remarkable for its barren, inhospitable landscape, irreverence towards religion, and restrictive gun laws. The hard-working, cynical population of 56 million Byzavarltyians are ruled with an iron fist by the corrupt, dictatorship government, which oppresses anyone who isn't on the board of a Fortune 500 company. Large corporations tend to be above the law, and use their financial clout to gain ever-increasing government benefits at the expense of the poor and unemployed.

The medium-sized, corrupt, moralistic, pro-business, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Administration, and Defense. The average income tax rate is 30.5%.

The very strong Byzavarltyian economy, worth 3.20 trillion florins a year, is led by the Uranium Mining industry, with major contributions from Gambling, Arms Manufacturing, and Automobile Manufacturing. Average income is 57,075 florins, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.9 times as much as the poorest.

It is now illegal for teens to view any sites except Club Kitten and My Little Donkey, videogames like 'Equalia: Knights of Self-Confidence' are proving inexplicably unpopular, there's more hugging than talking in most talk shows, and fans doing the wave routinely disrupt the finals of Go tournaments. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Byzavarlty's national animal is the elephant, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Byzavarlty is ranked 213,701^st in the world and 4,937^th in The North Pacific for Most Cheerful Citizens, with 49.5 Percentage Of Water Glasses Perceived Half-Full.
