The Beige Node of Node Beige is a colossal, orderly nation, notable for its smutty television, otherworldly petting zoo, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, hard-working, cynical, devout population of 4.534 billion Node Beigeans are ruled by a mostly-benevolent dictator, who grants the populace the freedom to live their own lives but watches carefully for anyone to slip up.

The medium-sized, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Industry, and Defense. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 68.8%.

The frighteningly efficient Node Beigean economy, worth 539 trillion Nodecoins a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, and Automobile Manufacturing. Average income is an impressive 119,004 Nodecoins, with the richest citizens earning 8.3 times as much as the poorest.

The silencing of dissent speaks volumes about the quality of Node Beigean democracy, sexually-starved male dinosaurs terrorise tourists during weekly breakouts from Mesozoic Park, libraries are now installed with jacuzzis and mini-bars, and seasonal hay-fever sufferers are attending government drug counselling sessions to get free doughnuts. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Node Beige's national animal is the Circuit, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Node Beige is ranked 146,875^th in the world and 97^th in The Node for Largest Populations, with 4.53 billion capita.
