The State of Baie Vert is a gargantuan, safe nation, renowned for its barren, inhospitable landscape. The hard-nosed, democratic population of 37.49 billion Baie Vertians enjoy a sensible mix of personal and economic freedoms, while the political process is open and the people's right to vote held sacrosanct.

The relatively small, outspoken government prioritizes Education, with Law & Order, Welfare, and Healthcare also on the agenda, while Spirituality and Environment are ignored. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Capital Heights. The average income tax rate is 17.2%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The Baie Vertian economy, worth a remarkable 1,187 trillion betales a year, is quite specialized and led by the Woodchip Exports industry, with major contributions from Book Publishing, Information Technology, and Uranium Mining. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 31,684 betales, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.6 times as much as the poorest.

There have been a series of riots between local cannibals and health food advocates, voting is voluntary, the country's famous rainforests are being bulldozed by the mining industry, and Baie Vert has designated Capital Heights as its capital city. Crime is relatively low, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Baie Vert's national animal is the deer, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Baie Vert is ranked 182,148^th in the world and 340^th in State for Largest Insurance Industry, scoring 311.45 on the Risk Expulsion Effectiveness Rating.
