The Republic of Outer Bratorke

“Mistakes into Miracles”

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

The Republic of Outer Bratorke is a massive, safe nation, notable for its lack of airports, sprawling nuclear power plants, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate, democratic population of 2.818 billion Outer Bratorkeans enjoy extensive civil rights and enjoy a level of social equality free from the usual accompanying government corruption.

The enormous, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Healthcare. The average income tax rate is 94.6%.

The frighteningly efficient Outer Bratorkean economy, worth 325 trillion Nires a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is highly specialized, is mostly made up of the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing and Beef-Based Agriculture. Average income is an impressive 115,390 Nires, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Polygraphs are relegated to the dungeon exhibit in castle museums, tradesmen will knock 10% off their fees if customers pay cash, criminals rejoice in the streets as the entire police force is sent away on a training retreat, and there's an aura of pseudoscience around academia. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Outer Bratorke's national animal is the Pangolin, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Outer Bratorke is ranked 83,225^th in the world and 2,916^th in the South Pacific for Highest Drug Use, scoring 76.8 on the Pineapple Fondness Rating.
