The Disputed Territories of The Bureaucratic Territories is a gargantuan, socially progressive nation, ruled by Overlord with a fair hand, and notable for its anti-smoking policies, punitive income tax rates, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, democratic population of 10.308 billion Measured Men 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 medium-sized, liberal, outspoken government is primarily concerned with Education, although Industry, Healthcare, and Environment are also considered important, while Spirituality is ignored. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of District 1. The average income tax rate is 90.7%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Weighed and Measured economy, worth a remarkable 1,839 trillion Favours a year, is mostly made up of the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing, Tourism, and Pizza Delivery. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 178,415 Favours, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Executions are marked by quiet dignity and maybe a final round or two of whist, Maxtopian tourists make expensive pilgrimages to District 1 to enjoy their national art, surfing lessons include how to ward off sharks, and a suspicious number of male students have joined the Ladies' Wrestling League. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. The Bureaucratic Territories's national animal is the Mutated Platypus, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

The Bureaucratic Territories is ranked 6,193^rd in the world and 341^st in The North Pacific for Most Secular, with 96.95 Atheism Rate.
