Bauhaus

The Bheronian Cosmology of Bauhaus is a huge, devout nation, ruled by Ahlerana and Ahvoneril with an iron fist, and renowned for its prohibition of alcohol. Its hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical population of 920 million are ruled by a mostly-benevolent dictator, who grants the populace the freedom to live their own lives but watches carefully for anyone to slip up.

It is difficult to tell where the omnipresent, corrupt government stops and the rest of society begins, but it juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defence, and Commerce. It meets every day to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Ahleranadim. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 88%. A powerhouse of a private sector is dominated by the Arms Manufacturing industry.

The bonfire of the old paper records can be seen for miles around Ahleranadim, society and government have been organized according to a feudal hierarchy, new safety regulations require all cars manufactured in Bauhaus to be bombproof, and the secret service is working overtime to find anyone publishing unauthorized material about Ahlerana and Ahvoneril. Crime -- especially youth-related -- is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Bauhaus's national animal is the Bear, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its currency is the Rixdollar.
