The Socialist Khaganate of Bolgolria is a massive, genial nation, ruled by Great People's Khagan Ekulgar with an even hand, and notable for its multi-spousal wedding ceremonies, frequent executions, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, devout population of 2.339 billion Bolgolrians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The enormous, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Administration, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Nov Bolghar. The average income tax rate is 90.6%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The powerhouse Bolgol economy, worth 265 trillion Levs 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 Trout Farming, Arms Manufacturing, and Beef-Based Agriculture. Average income is an impressive 113,461 Levs, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Any body part that can be cut off a person is no longer considered to be their property, kindergartners' favourite dance move is the stop-drop-and-roll, airplane passenger seat sizes and ticket prices are both first-class, and glittering new sports stadiums adorn every city and town. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Bolgolria's national animal is the Caracal, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Tengrism.

Bolgolria is ranked 301,787th in the world and 124th in Equestria for Largest Automobile Manufacturing Sector, scoring -8.49 on the Henry Ford Productivity Index.
