The Community of Baunam is a mid-sized, safe nation, remarkable for its irreverence towards religion. The cynical population of 50 million Baunamians have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.
The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Welfare, Law & Order, and Education. The average income tax rate is 29.7%, but much higher for the wealthy.
The Baunamian economy, worth 1.98 trillion baht a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Beef-Based Agriculture, Book Publishing, and Trout Farming. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 39,545 baht, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.7 times as much as the poorest.
Genetic researchers have been expelled, the mining industry is making inroads into environmentally sensitive areas, and organ donation is compulsory. Crime is almost non-existent, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Baunam's national animal is the crocodile.
Baunam is ranked 236,781st in the world and 45th in Liberal Democratic Union for Most Developed, scoring 52.27 on the Human Development Index.
