The Republic of Brusia is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by Senatus Populusque Brusianus with an even hand, and renowned for its barren, inhospitable landscape, keen interest in outer space, and national health service. The hard-nosed, devout population of 33.42 billion Brusians 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 prioritizes Defense, with Education, Law & Order, and Healthcare also on the agenda, while Social Policy and Environment receive no funds. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Urbs Invicta. The average income tax rate is 3.8%.

The all-consuming Brusian economy, worth a remarkable 3,700 trillion Aurum Notes a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Automobile Manufacturing, Uranium Mining, and Information Technology. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 110,729 Aurum Notes, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 4.5 times as much as the poorest.

Patriotic citizens chant "there's only one Brusia" at foreigners, the nation is now proudly cholera-free, airport announcements inform passengers that flights have been delayed because pilots are having afternoon naps, and proper policy proposals prerequire professional peer-reviewed papers. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. Brusia's national animal is the Peregrine Falcon, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to toxic air pollution, and its national religion is Protestantism.

Brusia is ranked 287,758^th in the world and 11,706^th in Balder for Nicest Citizens, with 0.82 average smiles per day.
