The Kingdom of Brototh is a titanic, efficient nation, ruled by Richard Arxon with an even hand, and notable for its ritual sacrifices, national health service, and rampant corporate plagiarism. The hard-nosed, hard-working, humorless population of 16.571 billion Brotothians enjoy extensive civil freedoms, particularly in social issues, while business tends to be more regulated.

The large, corrupt, liberal government juggles the competing demands of Industry, Defense, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Wigan. The average income tax rate is 98.1%.

The frighteningly efficient Brotothian economy, worth a remarkable 6,014 trillion lashans a year, is broadly diversified and mostly comprised of black market activity, especially in Information Technology, Arms Manufacturing, and Retail. Average income is an amazing 362,962 lashans, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.6 times as much as the poorest.

Planes with cockpit glass are reserved for the top pilots, it's hard to speak ill of the dead when you don't speak of them at all, enthusiasm for abstract art has gone up in smoke, and you can't ask the government "you and whose army?" when they declare they're going to rob you. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Brototh's national animal is the phoenix, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is the Cult of Godsinia.

Brototh is ranked 25,752nd in the world and 23rd in Thaecia for Lowest Crime Rates, with 90.03 law-abiding acts per hour.
