The Empire of the BB of BrightonBurg is a gargantuan, orderly nation, ruled by Kaiser Janos II with an iron fist, and renowned for its free-roaming dinosaurs, frequent executions, and national health service. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless, devout population of 45.259 billion BrightonBurgians are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."

The minute, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government, or what there is of one, is solely concerned with Defense. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Greater Brightonburg City. Income tax is unheard of.

The frighteningly efficient BrightonBurgian economy, worth an astonishing 23,726 trillion Silver Coins a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Uranium Mining industry, with significant contributions from Retail, Woodchip Exports, and Door-to-door Insurance Sales. Black market activity is rampant. State-owned companies are common. Average income is a breathtaking 524,235 Silver Coins, but there is a large disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 2,058,985 per year while the poor average 90,705, a ratio of 22.7 to 1.

Tech-mad citizens think that the laser-powered bread-slicer uPhone App is the coolest thing since sliced bread, official maps have to be revised on a weekly basis, half of the nation's import/export industry is run from a location known only as 'Dead Man's Cove', and the government has the power to seize property at will. 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. BrightonBurg's national animal is the Boar, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Holy Orange Catholic Church ⛪.

BrightonBurg is ranked 173rd in the world and 1st in One big Island for Most Corrupt Governments, with 927.86 kickbacks per hour.
