Overview • People • Government • Economy • Trend • Analysis

The Republic of Bronze Travels is a massive, economically powerful nation, notable for its complete absence of social welfare. Its hard-nosed, hard-working population of 1.042 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.

The tiny government is mainly concerned with Religion & Spirituality, although Commerce and Defence are secondary priorities. It meets every day to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Bronze Travels City. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 10%. A robust private sector is led by the Gambling, Cheese Exports, and Pizza Delivery industries.

The nanny industry has had a boom after maternity leave was recently banned, abortion is only legal in unusual circumstances, naturists are jailed regularly for indecent exposure, and conscientious objectors are hanged as traitors. Crime is a problem. Bronze Travels's national animal is the seagull, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its currency is the bronze piece.

Bronze Travels is ranked 3,626th in the South Pacific and 72,424th in the world for Largest Insurance Industry, scoring -1 on the Risk Expulsion Effectiveness Rating.
