The Free Land of Belladonnia is a colossal, environmentally stunning nation, renowned for its irreverence towards religion, restrictive gun laws, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, democratic population of 7.343 billion Belladonnians are free to do what they want with their own bodies, and vote for whomever they like in elections; if they go into business, however, they are regulated to within an inch of their lives.
The government — a sprawling, bureaucracy-choked, socially-minded morass — prioritizes Healthcare, with Education, Administration, and Welfare also on the agenda, while Spirituality isn't funded at all. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Ddraigtopia. The average income tax rate is 77.4%, and even higher for the wealthy.
The Belladonnian economy, worth 332 trillion UniverseEuros a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is quite specialized, is led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Basket Weaving, Book Publishing, and Furniture Restoration. Average income is 45,245 UniverseEuros, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.
Exports of chewing gum are inexplicably falling, landless farmers wander forlornly in the government's many national parks, modelling agencies send their clients to work in nursing homes, and celebrities sit helplessly as they are labeled "pompous womples" by Leader. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Belladonnia's national animal is the Dragon, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.
Belladonnia is ranked 180,231st in the world and 43rd in Caer Sidi for Most Primitive, scoring -70.64 on the Scary Big Number Scale.
