The Bannorn of Brax is a mammoth, safe nation, ruled by Bann Jaqonos vos Nahys with a fair hand, and remarkable for its compulsory military service. The hard-working, democratic, devout population of 9.169 billion Braxians enjoy a sensible mix of personal and economic freedoms, while the political process is open and the people's right to vote held sacrosanct.

The medium-sized, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Education, Welfare, and Defense. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Andros. The average income tax rate is 26.4%.

The Braxian economy, worth 504 trillion kamas a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Woodchip Exports, Basket Weaving, and Retail. Average income is 55,014 kamas, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.7 times as much as the poorest.

The nation's forests are full of treasure hunters in military-grade survival gear, coffee cups have grown in size to accommodate the huge ingredients list, the military is researching proton packs and PK-meters to combat "unseen enemy forces", and the police have been known to wiretap confessional boxes. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Brax's national animal is the unicorn, which can occasionally be seen sifting through garbage in the nation's cities, and its national religion is Maumiqism.

Brax is ranked 144,062^nd in the world and 1^st in Night Eagle for Most Developed, scoring 56.06 on the Human Development Index.
