The Smash Hit Movie Version of Brocklandia is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by the biggest squirrels you ever saw with a fair hand, and renowned for its museums and concert halls, rampant corporate plagiarism, and absence of drug laws. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic, cheerful population of 22.218 billion Brocklandians live in a state of perpetual fear, as a complete breakdown of social order has led to the rise of order through biker gangs.

The minute, corrupt, liberal, pro-business, outspoken government, or what there is of one, is primarily concerned with Administration, with Industry and Education also on the agenda, while Law & Order and Spirituality are ignored. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Darkest Surburbia. Income tax is unheard of.

The frighteningly efficient Brocklandian economy, worth a remarkable 7,420 trillion goobers a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is broadly diversified and led by the Retail industry, with significant contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, and Soda Sales. Average income is an amazing 333,969 goobers, but there is a large disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 1,692,616 per year while the poor average 36,553, a ratio of 46.3 to 1.

Teens are voting on which C-List pop star will be next to be evicted from the opera house, the atmosphere in Brocklandian boardrooms is turning more gay, Darkest Surburbia has restaurants serving every meat from aardvark to zebra, and schools offer a range of lessons in subjects as diverse as The Economics of Bullying for Lunch Money. Crime, especially youth-related, is so common that it is unusual to encounter someone following the law, perhaps because of the country's complete lack of prisons. Brocklandia's national animal is the giant dancing howler monkey, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its national religion is --uhm--maybe apathy--or whatever.

Brocklandia is ranked 57,537^th in the world and 33^rd in The Bar on the corner of every region for Highest Poor Incomes, with 36,553.83 Standard Monetary Units.
