The Free Bears of Bears Armed is a gargantuan, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by ChairBear of the High Council with a fair hand, and notable for its lack of airports, multi-spousal wedding ceremonies, and public floggings. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic, cheerful, devout population of 36.052 billion Bears hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.

The tiny, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Education, Industry, and Environment. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Council Groves. Income tax is unheard of.

The frighteningly efficient Urrsish economy, worth an astonishing 13,111 trillion golden thalers a year, is dominated by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing, Soda Sales, and Gambling. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an amazing 363,692 golden thalers, with the richest citizens earning 9.3 times as much as the poorest.

Council Groves has restaurants serving every meat from aardvark to zebra, the Council Groves Film Festival recently voted 'Bear Getting Hit By Football' as best film, the number of deaths due to poor fungus identification is mushrooming, and seven-year-olds debate for weeks on the merits of the Oxford comma. Crime is totally unknown. Bears Armed's national animal is the goldilocks, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is One Plus Seven.

Bears Armed is ranked 311,859th in the world and 83rd in International Democratic Union for Largest Arms Manufacturing Sector, scoring -26.59 on the Charon Conveyancy Index.
