The United Socialist States of Bedsonya is a massive, genial nation, ruled by Biggus Dickus with an even hand, and notable for its state-planned economy, soft-spoken computers, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate population of 1.647 billion Bedsonyans 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 Education, Administration, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Nostaw. The average income tax rate is 94.4%.

The frighteningly efficient Bedsonyan economy, worth 214 trillion Dollarbucks a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is highly specialized, is led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Trout Farming, and Book Publishing. Average income is an impressive 130,536 Dollarbucks, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Foreign leaders are advising that Biggus Dickus's letters must have gotten lost in the mail, a fashion designer has been arrested for inciting hatred after claiming redheads couldn't pull off vermillion, hundreds of sailors ride the good ship Biggus Dickus day after day, and the cruise missile launchers on the field hospital roof are purely deterrent in purpose. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Bedsonya's national animal is the Plapitypuss, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Bedsonya is ranked 17,165^th in the world and 719^th in The North Pacific for Most Scientifically Advanced, scoring 305.15 on the Kurzweil Singularity Index.
