The Kingdom of The Baloo Kingdom Fruit Stand is a colossal, safe nation, ruled by King Baloo von Bruinwald XIII with an iron fist, and renowned for its museums and concert halls, parental licensing program, and ubiquitous missile silos. The compassionate, cynical, devout population of 6.957 billion Baloo Kingdom Fruit Standians are ruled with an iron fist by the dictatorship government, which ensures that no-one outside the party gets too rich. In their personal lives, however, citizens are relatively unoppressed; it remains to be seen whether this is because the government genuinely cares about its people, or if it hasn't gotten around to stamping out civil rights yet.

The medium-sized, corrupt, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Industry, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Baloo Kingdom City. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 32.7%.

The powerhouse Baloo Kingdom Fruit Standian economy, worth 627 trillion Prickly Pears a year, is quite specialized and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Trout Farming, and Basket Weaving. Black market activity is frequent. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 90,188 Prickly Pears, but there is a large disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 338,331 per year while the poor average 16,801, a ratio of 20.1 to 1.

The question "please would you...?" is usually laden with passive aggression, back-alley circumcision clinics are popping up all over the nation, King Baloo von Bruinwald XIII tells rebellious ministers to "drop and give me twenty", and the government is deliberately installing bloatware onto computers. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. The Baloo Kingdom Fruit Stand's national animal is the Bear, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Lutheran Christianity.

The Baloo Kingdom Fruit Stand is ranked 238,875th in the world and 3rd in Redcrown Keep for Most Scientifically Advanced, scoring -8.45 on the Kurzweil Singularity Index.
