The Principality of Burback is a mammoth, socially progressive nation, remarkable for its smutty television, multi-spousal wedding ceremonies, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, democratic population of 8.072 billion Burbackians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The enormous, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Binghamton. The average income tax rate is 93.0%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Burbackian economy, worth 948 trillion dollars a year, is highly specialized and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Book Publishing, Information Technology, and Furniture Restoration. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 117,490 dollars, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

National foreign policy involves significant amounts of hand wringing, offering a builder a cup of tea is a legal minefield, civil servants refuse to enforce government regulations for fear of wider economic impact, and politicians constantly ring their voters to remind them how good a job they're doing. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Burback's national animal is the falcon, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Burback is ranked 6,812th in the world and 269th in The North Pacific for Most Eco-Friendly Governments, scoring 7,074.3 on the Dolphin Recycling Awareness Index.
