No as the bears in my country are more similar to cave bears (The wiki link here https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cave_bear) so it is not worth the ammo spent on killing them.

My nation is an FT civ

Do we have ftl?-Yes but for scifi ftl, its fairly slow.
Where about are you scifi wise?-Slightly ahead of the UNSC tech wise (About 75 years ahead of them)
How hard of a scifi is yn?-Fairly hard as I try to keep the nation grounded in reality.
What about the Tantalus device?-That is a xeno artifact that in lore the confederacy has no idea how it works but it does and they want to keep it that way

The BN does not follow Christianity, but at the same time Christianity as a religion does not exist as a dominant religion in the BN's world.

Maybe among the citizens of remote Rhiksmalahan province - they're noted for holding some odd beliefs.

BN is proud of its legendary founder, but isn't entirely certain whether they're a genuine historical figure or not.

Noncanon. The worst cause of monopoly is the state nationalizing (or attempting to nationalize) any market or sector of economy, which is unconstitutional (treason). The second worst is the state overregulating (bullying) the otherwise law abiding citizenry, also unconstitutional (sedition), as it always chooses marketplace winners and losers (either directly or indirectly). Public utilities (another form of monopoly) are by civil compact (school districts, fire districts, the distribution of electricity etc) and are limited in power and scope as mortgaged entities of 6 months to 7 year lifespans. failing to do so is fraud and larceny). The nature of the Commonwealth's free and open market economy makes it unwieldy and detrimental for any business to try to maintain an monopoly for any length of time by lawful activity. Force or fraud must be committed to artificially maintain it and such can easily result in 20 years hard labor to the death penalty for those foolish enough to try.

BN has such a long history and strong ethos that even when sweeping political reforms are fully implemented strange or unique customary deviations develop that tourists find charming.

True! Even with Islamization, local customs tied to Hinduism or Buddhism still stick. You can see imams and mosque staff circling the mosque while burning incense and chanting prayers on Idul Adha just like irl.

Not canon. The concept of franchises is not really a thing yet in East Plate... Nonetheless, you will encounter several individual entrepreneurs trying to sell you fast food on the streets, including things like fried fish, hot eels, ham sandwiches, baked potatoes, muffins and crumpets.
