The Kingdom of Brocheland is a massive, cultured nation, renowned for its deadly medical pandemics, zero percent divorce rate, and ubiquitous missile silos. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless population of 4.576 billion Brochelandians are ruled with an iron fist by the corrupt, dictatorship government, which oppresses anyone who isn't on the board of a Fortune 500 company. Large corporations tend to be above the law, and use their financial clout to gain ever-increasing government benefits at the expense of the poor and unemployed.

The medium-sized, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Industry, Defense, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of magnolia. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 66.1%.

The frighteningly efficient Brochelandian economy, worth 967 trillion dollars a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Retail, and Pizza Delivery. Black market activity is rampant. Average income is an amazing 211,440 dollars, but there is an enormous disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 1,352,330 per year while the poor average 13,535, a ratio of 99.9 to 1.

The government regularly publishes lengthy reports on its own excessive recordkeeping, the nation's interest in space is at an all-time high while interest in saving the planet is at an all-time low, former bars are desperately trying to re-brand themselves as cafés, and you can't make an omelet without breaking a few legs. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, despite the fact that it is difficult to make it through a day without breaking one of the country's many laws. Brocheland's national animal is the wolverine, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Brocheland is ranked 16,498th in the world and 1,021st in Osiris for Highest Disposable Incomes, with 71,678.35 Standard Monetary Units.
