The United Commonwealth of New Bradenia Ghost is a gargantuan, socially progressive nation, ruled by Arno Tyranic with an even hand, and notable for its unlimited-speed roads, free-roaming dinosaurs, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, cynical, humorless, devout population of 12.489 billion New Bradenians 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 large, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Education, Industry, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of New Glasgow. The average income tax rate is 88.9%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient New Bradenia Ghostian economy, worth a remarkable 1,892 trillion Bradenian Dollars a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Woodchip Exports, and Tourism. Average income is an impressive 151,543 Bradenian Dollars, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.1 times as much as the poorest.

Married couples must call each other "darling" or risk a fine, the government spends more on chasing distant comets than on basic infrastructure, supermarket milk is a shear-thickening fluid that can stop small-caliber bullets, and future leaders of New Bradenia Ghost regularly dismiss pressing political issues when available options don't conform to their worldview. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. New Bradenia Ghost's national animal is the Old Moose, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

New Bradenia Ghost is ranked 5,742nd in the world and 146th in The East Pacific for Lowest Crime Rates, with 113.14 law-abiding acts per hour.
