The Federation of Brickfield is a colossal, cultured nation, remarkable for its state-planned economy, soft-spoken computers, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, democratic population of 7.339 billion Brickfieldians are free to do what they want with their own bodies, and vote for whomever they like in elections; if they go into business, however, they are regulated to within an inch of their lives.

The enormous, liberal, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Education, Environment, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of New Brickfield City. The average income tax rate is 96.5%.

The all-consuming Brickfieldian economy, worth 907 trillion Brickcoins a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is extremely specialized, is mostly made up of the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism. Average income is an impressive 123,655 Brickcoins, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Cash-strapped junkies lick rabbits for a cheap high, heartfelt sentiments are mercilessly marketed by a million-Brickcoin treacle machine, the canal flows through the land like a twisty turny thing, and the government has officially clarified that "wee on your hands to save time" does not count as proper hygiene. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Brickfield's national animal is the Wolf, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Brickfield is ranked 164,647^th in the world and 769^th in Europeia for Most Armed, with 0.14 Weapons Per Person.
