Question: Where are the bikes manufactured?
Answer: Bulgaria.  I know what you're thinking, Bulgaria?  Bulgaria joined the EU in 2007 and has a large and thriving bike industry.  We searched the world and by far the Bulgarian bike industry had the most to offer.  They know how to build good decent bikes.

Question: Why are they called  Beaters?
