The Heavy Cruiser of Bremerton is a massive, genial nation, ruled by Bremerton with a fair hand, and renowned for its daily referendums, keen interest in outer space, and absence of drug laws. The compassionate, hard-working, democratic, cheerful, devout population of 3.961 billion Bremertonians hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.

The medium-sized, liberal, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Education, Industry, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Pyru. The average income tax rate is 88.4%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Bremertonian economy, worth 796 trillion yen a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is fairly diversified, is led by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Book Publishing, and Beef-Based Agriculture. Average income is an amazing 201,095 yen, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

State dairy cow's milk is a shear-thickening fluid that can stop small-caliber bullets, women who walk into the ladies' changing room are accused of being Peeping Toms, the Ministry of Health has reported a sharp increase in the incidence of delayed menopause, and crowded passenger trains are near-silent save for the soft tap of fingers on touchscreens. Crime is totally unknown. Bremerton's national animal is the eagle, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Violetism.

Bremerton is ranked 3,412^th in the world and 18^th in Ambition for Safest, scoring 137.38 on the Bubble-Rapp Safety Rating.
