The Grand Duchy of Brabant is a gargantuan, socially progressive nation, notable for its burgeoning leeuw population. The hard-nosed population of 28.425 billion Brabantians 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 large government juggles the competing demands of Environment, Defense, and Education. The average income tax rate is 35.9%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The large but inefficient Brabantian economy, worth 826 trillion euros a year, is quite specialized and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Book Publishing, Pizza Delivery, and Retail. Black market activity is notable. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 29,071 euros, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.2 times as much as the poorest.

Crime is relatively low, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Brabant's national animal is the leeuw, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Brabant is ranked 108,792^nd in the world and 35^th in Vlaanderen for Highest Drug Use, scoring 154.71 on the Pineapple Fondness Rating.
