The République Barltave of Barlyy is a colossal, efficient nation, ruled by Gene Wilders from that movie with an iron fist, and remarkable for its anti-smoking policies, smutty television, and parental licensing program. The compassionate, cynical, cheerful population of 8.364 billion Barlyyians are ruled without fear or favor by a psychotic dictator, who outlaws just about everything and refers to the populace as "my little playthings."

The enormous, moralistic, socially-minded, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Defense. The income tax rate is 100%.

The frighteningly efficient Barlyyian economy, worth a remarkable 2,579 trillion gozlemes 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 mostly made up of the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing and Arms Manufacturing. Average income is an amazing 308,401 gozlemes, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

People say chess victor Gene Wilders from that movie can kill you with mind-bullets, deceased politicians' MyFace profiles are unanimously pro-incumbent, it is against the rules of boxing to hit above or below the belt, and no personal detail is too tiny for the suede-denim census police. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Barlyy's national animal is the raven, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Harry Kaneism.

Barlyy is ranked 68^th in the world and 1^st in Ode to Barlyy for Most Patriotic, with 200.43 flags saluted per person per day.
