The Potato Loving Nation of Brediton is a massive, genial nation, ruled by Bread with a fair hand, and remarkable for its museums and concert halls, free-roaming dinosaurs, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, hard-working, democratic population of 2.49 billion Breditons 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 Defense, Education, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Brediton City. The average income tax rate is 67.0%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Breditonian economy, worth 295 trillion dollars a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Book Publishing industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Arms Manufacturing, and Retail. Average income is an impressive 118,627 dollars, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.2 times as much as the poorest.

A shocking number of estate planners are beneficiaries of their clients' wills, the government has declared that sharing is uncaring, families must live in a village for a century before they get any say in how it runs, and being sent to collections is more dangerous than ever. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Brediton's national animal is the sloth, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its national religion is Benism.

Brediton is ranked 60,813^th in the world and 42^nd in Hive for Safest, scoring 98.68 on the Bubble-Rapp Safety Rating.
