The Republic of Bonaferia is a gargantuan, socially progressive nation, ruled by prime minister Petro Flenato with a fair hand, and notable for its otherworldly petting zoo, prohibition of alcohol, and strictly enforced bedtime. The hard-nosed, democratic population of 11.329 billion Bonaferans hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.

The enormous government prioritizes Healthcare, with Education, Administration, and Law & Order also on the agenda, while Defense and Spirituality receive no funds. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Bonurbia. The average income tax rate is 82.5%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Bonaferian economy, worth 922 trillion silver denars a year, is highly specialized and led by the Uranium Mining industry, with major contributions from Tourism and Book Publishing. Black market activity is frequent. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 81,391 silver denars, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Bike rage is all the rage, pedal-powered removal vans are a popular Maxxmas gift for the children of separated parents, people faint regularly as they get stuck with compulsory vaccinations, and Prime minister Petro Flenato is frequently seen begging critics to stop insulting the government. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Bonaferia's national animal is the West Lowlands pigeon, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is ancestor spiritism.

Bonaferia is ranked 62,217th in the world and 113th in The Union of Democratic States for Lowest Crime Rates, with 71.35 law-abiding acts per hour.
