The Dynasty of Burg land is a massive, efficient nation, ruled by Emperor Waltus Burg Ross with an even hand, and notable for its frequent executions, smutty television, and stringent health and safety legislation. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic, devout population of 2.476 billion Burgs 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 prioritizes Defense, with Industry, Healthcare, and Law & Order also on the agenda. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Top Bun City. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 45.1%.

The all-consuming Burgish economy, worth 254 trillion burg kifs a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is a slick, highly efficient, broadly diversified black market in Arms Manufacturing, Automobile Manufacturing, Woodchip Exports, and Beef-Based Agriculture. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is an impressive 102,680 burg kifs, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 319,503 per year while the poor average 25,372, a ratio of 12.6 to 1.

The constant playing of Merry Birthday on Burgish radio has led to calls for the song to be classified as a crime against humanity, the nation's generous tax credits have brought all the film studios to the yard, reflection is vital for badly behaved politicians, and the distracting décor lining the roads causes multiple pile-ups. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Burg land's national animal is the Wild Burger, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Gruology.

Burg land is ranked 22,131st in the world and 53rd in United Kingdom for Highest Foreign Aid Spending, scoring 1,107.54 on the Clooney Contribution Index.
