The State of Belaruthenia is a gargantuan, efficient nation, renowned for its burgeoning deer population. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic population of 26.946 billion Belaruthenians 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 tiny, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Education, and Welfare. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 7.9%.

The very strong Belaruthenian economy, worth a remarkable 1,394 trillion betales a year, is quite specialized and led by the Book Publishing industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Door-to-door Insurance Sales, and Arms Manufacturing. Average income is 51,742 betales, with the richest citizens earning 6.8 times as much as the poorest.

The government is avowedly atheist and voting is voluntary. Crime is moderate. Belaruthenia's national animal is the deer, which can occasionally be seen sifting through garbage in the nation's cities.

Belaruthenia is ranked 180,610^th in the world and 1^st in Belorussia for Most Beautiful Environments, with 491.24 pounds of wildlife per square mile.
