The Empire of the BB of BrightonBurg is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by Kaiser Janos II with an iron fist, and remarkable for its compulsory military service, enslaved workforce, and frequent executions. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless, devout population of 45.224 billion BrightonBurgians 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 minute, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government, or what there is of one, is solely concerned with Defense. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Greater Brightonburg City. Income tax is unheard of.

The frighteningly efficient BrightonBurgian economy, worth an astonishing 23,542 trillion Silver Coins a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Uranium Mining industry, with significant contributions from Retail, Woodchip Exports, and Door-to-door Insurance Sales. Black market activity is extensive. State-owned companies are common. Average income is a breathtaking 520,567 Silver Coins, but there is a large disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 2,093,747 per year while the poor average 86,617, a ratio of 24.2 to 1.

Punk rockers smash it up and then clean it up, the teaching of evolution has been banned, workers can choose whether they prefer offices that smell of pungent body odor or whale vomit, and people are turning themselves into worm food. 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. BrightonBurg's national animal is the Boar, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Holy Orange Catholic Church ⛪.

BrightonBurg is ranked 52,083^rd in the world and 19^th in One big Island for Largest Publishing Industry, scoring 5,331.58 on the Bella Potter Productivity e-Index.
