The Yipee-ki-yay of Bran Astor is a gargantuan, genial nation, ruled by Harry Henderson with a fair hand, and renowned for its museums and concert halls, ban on automobiles, and compulsory military service. The compassionate, hard-working, democratic population of 15.285 billion Astorians hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.

The medium-sized, corrupt government prioritizes Education, with Industry, Environment, and Healthcare also on the agenda, while Spirituality and Welfare receive no funds. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Stumptown. The average income tax rate is 66.2%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Astorian economy, worth a remarkable 2,590 trillion chocolate bytecoins a year, is led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Retail. Black market activity is rampant. Average income is an impressive 169,497 chocolate bytecoins, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

It turns out you can teach cats new tricks, the national colors help to make everyone look slimmer, the RXN information hour is a guaranteed cure for insomnia, and Harry Henderson can often be found attempting to coax random citizens' cats down from trees. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. Bran Astor's national animal is the christmas tree octopus, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans, and its national religion is Gnostic Creationism.

Bran Astor is ranked 202,806th in the world and 1,529th in the West Pacific for Most Stationary, with 44.2523327896 days.
