The Most Serene Republic of Bightakeed is a small, environmentally stunning nation, renowned for its absence of drug laws. The hard-nosed, democratic, devout population of 40 million Bightakeedians are free to do what they want with their own bodies, and vote for whomever they like in elections; if they go into business, however, they are regulated to within an inch of their lives.

The large, liberal, outspoken government is primarily concerned with Spirituality, with Defense, Law & Order, and Healthcare also on the agenda. The average income tax rate is 47.4%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The sizeable but underdeveloped Bightakeedian economy, worth 1.00 trillion kronor a year, is led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Gambling, Trout Farming, and Door-to-door Insurance Sales. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 25,063 kronor, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Bightakeed's national animal is the cow, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Bightakeed is ranked 316,420^th in the world and 2^nd in Northvale for Highest Average Incomes, with 25,063.45 Standard Monetary Units.
