The Anvil of Bovka is a mammoth, pleasant nation, remarkable for its burgeoning tiger population. The hard-working population of 7.876 billion Bovkans 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 Law & Order, Defense, and Healthcare. The average income tax rate is 21.2%.

The Bovkan economy, worth 325 trillion pounds a year, is led by the Uranium Mining industry, with major contributions from Woodchip Exports, Retail, and Basket Weaving. Average income is 41,320 pounds, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.6 times as much as the poorest.

Crime is relatively low, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Bovka's national animal is the tiger, which can occasionally be seen sifting through garbage in the nation's cities.

Bovka is ranked 283,993^rd in the world and 2^nd in FORGE for Most Scientifically Advanced, scoring -33.17 on the Kurzweil Singularity Index.
