“Brotherhood leads to success”

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

The Republic of Brotherland is a gargantuan, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Joan Ragno with a fair hand, and remarkable for its smutty television, multi-spousal wedding ceremonies, and keen interest in outer space. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful population of 20.124 billion Brotherlandians are free to do what they want with their own bodies, and vote for whomever they like in elections; if they go into business, however, they are regulated to within an inch of their lives.

The enormous, liberal, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Education, Healthcare, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Brotherland City. The average income tax rate is 98.2%.

The frighteningly efficient Brotherlandian economy, worth a remarkable 3,151 trillion Songs a year, is highly specialized and mostly made up of the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Book Publishing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 156,604 Songs, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The best way to be heard in politics is to speak softly and carry a big comedy prop, teachers are dying as they attempt to read 500 word essays without pausing for breath, fixing attendance at women's matches is a matter of "when they go low, we go high... funding", and adults pretending to be teenage girls claim to have wholesome motives. Crime is totally unknown. Brotherland's national animal is the Cat, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Fratracism.

Brotherland is ranked 255,451^st in the world and 9,631^st in The East Pacific for Largest Insurance Industry, scoring -21.39 on the Risk Expulsion Effectiveness Rating.
