The Grand Duchy of Buraistan is a huge, environmentally stunning nation, renowned for its state-planned economy, compulsory military service, and parental licensing program. The quiet, industrious population of 359 million Buraistanians are prohibited from doing almost everything except voting, which they do timidly and conservatively.

The enormous, socially-minded government prioritizes Welfare, with Law & Order, Education, and Healthcare also on the agenda. The average income tax rate is 66.9%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The sizeable but sluggish Buraistanian economy, worth 7.25 trillion bullions a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is quite specialized, is led by the Pizza Delivery industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Woodchip Exports, and Arms Manufacturing. Average income is 20,195 bullions, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The government is promoting multicultural values with the new 'Just Be Nice, OK?' initiative, Maxtopian tourists make expensive pilgrimages to Buraistan City to enjoy their national art, the government makes bereaved siblings into bereaved orphans, and judges are rumored to find in favor of whoever bribes them the most. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Buraistan's national animal is the Badger, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Buraistan is ranked 235,811^th in the world and 10,467^th in Lazarus for Largest Populations, with 359 million capita.
