The Sadistic Republic of Bright Angel is a gargantuan, orderly nation, ruled by Johann der Becker with an iron fist, and remarkable for its compulsory military service, zero percent divorce rate, and flagrant waste-dumping. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless, devout population of 31.32 billion Bright Angelians 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 medium-sized, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government is primarily concerned with Defense, although Industry, Spirituality, and Healthcare are also considered important, while Environment and Welfare are ignored. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Flagstaff. The income tax rate is 100%.

The frighteningly efficient Bright Angelian economy, worth an astonishing 37,471 trillion zuchs 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 an enormous, deeply entrenched, broadly diversified black market in Arms Manufacturing, Uranium Mining, Woodchip Exports, and Information Technology. 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 a breathtaking 1,196,402 zuchs, with the richest citizens earning 8.3 times as much as the poorest.

Virtually all of the country's economic activity takes place in Flagstaff, arthritic citizens seem underrepresented at royal meet-and-greets, the police are tightening their grip on alcohol smugglers, and friendly fire incidents usually result in severe burns. 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. Bright Angel's national animal is the red bearded woodchuck, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Veni vidi vici.

Bright Angel is ranked 154,552^nd in the world and 3^rd in Macfora Forever for Highest Drug Use, scoring 0.6 on the Pineapple Fondness Rating.
