“The Leader Knows Best!”

Overview • Policies • People • Government • Economy • Rank • Trend • Cards

The People's Republic of Breveiba is a huge, environmentally stunning nation, renowned for its compulsory military service, ban on automobiles, and punitive income tax rates. The cynical, devout population of 203 million Breveibans are ruled without fear or favor by a psychotic dictator, who outlaws just about everything and refers to the populace as "my little playthings."

The government — a sprawling, bureaucracy-choked, corrupt, moralistic, socially-minded, well-organized morass — juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Administration. The average income tax rate is 80.2%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The sizeable but stagnant Breveiban economy, worth 1.39 trillion Brevas a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is quite specialized, is led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Trout Farming, Door-to-door Insurance Sales, and Gambling. Average income is 6,849 Brevas, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

An iron curtain has descended around the nation, pregnant hitchhikers with signs requesting rides to "competent care" are a common sight on Breveiban roads, demolition derbies mostly consist of bicycles crashing into each other, and people often get liposuction to reduce their air fares. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Breveiba's national animal is the Pelican, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Breveiba is ranked 308,756^th in the world and 5,403^rd in The North Pacific for Most Extensive Public Healthcare, scoring 412.62 on the Theresa-Nightingale Rating.
