The People's Republic of Brituctam is a massive, cultured nation, ruled by Dalina Yatiraingh Shaperta with an even hand, and renowned for its anti-smoking policies. Its compassionate, hard-working population of 3.554 billion have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

It is difficult to tell where the omnipresent government stops and the rest of society begins, but it juggles the competing demands of Education, Law & Order, and the Environment. It meets every day to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Dasilompal. The average income tax rate is 82%. The private sector is almost wholly made up of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, although the government is looking at stamping this out.

Houses and businesses are bulldozed to make way for ever-expanding cemeteries, refugees from other nations are flocking to Brituctam's border, there have been sightings of people walking around dressed in nothing but leopard-skin g-strings for 'religious reasons', and all-natural foods are becoming a major fad. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Brituctam's national animal is the Britucty Elephant, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, its national religion is Christianity, and its currency is the Britucty Palamul.

Brituctam is ranked 3rd in Plinghin and 91,255th in the world for Most Authoritarian, with 0.091 Stalins.
