The People's Republic of Behemothe is a very large, cultured nation, renowned for its keen interest in outer space, state-planned economy, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate population of 359 million Behemotheans are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The large, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Education, Law & Order, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Yakiakota. The average income tax rate is 76.5%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The strong Behemothean economy, worth 29.7 trillion Yueis a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is quite specialized, is led by the Trout Farming industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Beef-Based Agriculture, and Cheese Exports. Average income is 82,708 Yueis, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The Behemothe Enquirer offers weekly cash prizes for 'most blasphemous song, story, or cartoon', royalist is the most offensive slur in the Behemothean language, torture is illegal, and the country is rumored to be a Brancalandian puppet state. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Behemothe's national animal is the Sika Deer, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Behemothe is ranked 11,873^rd in the world and 57^th in Carcassonne for Nicest Citizens, with 28.74 average smiles per day.
