The Republic of BrakesFellOff is a massive, environmentally stunning nation, renowned for its avowedly heterosexual populace, rampant corporate plagiarism, and unlimited-speed roads. The compassionate, cheerful, devout population of 1.946 billion BrakesFellOffians are highly moralistic and fiercely conservative, in the sense that they tend to believe most things should be outlawed. People who have good jobs and work quietly at them are lauded; others are viewed with suspicion.

The medium-sized, moralistic government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Industry. The average income tax rate is 67.6%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient BrakesFellOffian economy, worth 311 trillion Dollars a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Arms Manufacturing, and Book Publishing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 160,269 Dollars, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Engineers preemptively order lawyers after every power cut, the best way to be heard in politics is to speak softly and carry a big comedy prop, diners regard burgers made from mechanically reclaimed cow protein as "proper meat", and a niche industry catering to S&M enthusiasts has sprung up. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. BrakesFellOff's national animal is the Eagle, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

BrakesFellOff is ranked 83,309th in the world and 1st in Odrya for Highest Wealthy Incomes, with 190,107 Standard Monetary Units.
