The Republic of Bhuraziri is a massive, cultured nation, ruled by Arlindo with a fair hand, and notable for its museums and concert halls, daily referendums, and pith helmet sales. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic population of 1.307 billion Bhurazirians are effectively ruled by a group of massive corporations, who run for political office and provide their well-off citizens with world-class goods and services. Their poorer citizens, however, are mostly starving to death while being urged to go out and get real jobs. The populace has reasonably extensive civil rights, although these are mostly aimed at allowing them to buy whatever they like.

The medium-sized, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Industry, Defense, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Rizomática. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 37.6%.

The frighteningly efficient Bhurazirian economy, worth 157 trillion Reais a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Book Publishing, Retail, and Information Technology. Black market activity is frequent. Average income is an impressive 120,271 Reais, with the richest citizens earning 5.7 times as much as the poorest.

Freighter lifeboats have been replaced by state of the art marker buoys so divers can recover the cargo after they sink, town welcome signs list corporate sponsors, the country's famous rainforests are being bulldozed by the mining industry, and what's in your genes matters more than what's in your jeans. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. Bhuraziri's national animal is the Harpia, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its national religion is Catholicism.

Bhuraziri is ranked 46,249^th in the world and 9^th in Hive for Most Patriotic, with 33.61 flags saluted per person per day.
