The High Baronate of Boilanzandia is a massive, orderly nation, ruled by High Baron Propael XVIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII with an iron fist, and notable for its zero percent divorce rate, keen interest in outer space, and ubiquitous missile silos. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless population of 3.639 billion Boilanzandians are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."

The relatively small, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government prioritizes Defense, with Law & Order, Industry, and Education also on the agenda, while Social Policy and Welfare aren't funded at all. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Oilaboila. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 49.1%.

The frighteningly efficient Boilanzandian economy, worth 911 trillion boils a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Retail, and Uranium Mining. Black market activity is rampant. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an amazing 250,613 boils, but there is an enormous disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 1,339,141 per year while the poor average 24,604, a ratio of 54.4 to 1.

Teenage girls in knee-length surfer shorts have become a cultural icon of Boilanzandia, legal contracts aren't worth the paper they're written on, the most common doctor's prescription is "get out of my consulting room", and corrupt paupers spend taxpayer boils on liquor and tobacco. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Boilanzandia's national animal is the boil cows, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its national religion is Propaelism.

Boilanzandia is ranked 288,311th in the world and 92nd in Callista for Most Beautiful Environments, with 3.09 pounds of wildlife per square mile.
