The Sadistic Republic of Bright Angel is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by Johann der Becker with an iron fist, and remarkable for its free-roaming dinosaurs, avant-garde cinema, and conspicuous electricity pylons. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless, devout population of 26.661 billion Bright Angelians are ruled with an iron fist by the corrupt, dictatorship government, which oppresses anyone who isn't on the board of a Fortune 500 company. Large corporations tend to be above the law, and use their financial clout to gain ever-increasing government benefits at the expense of the poor and unemployed.

The medium-sized, corrupt, moralistic, pro-business, well-organized government is primarily concerned with Defense, although Industry, Spirituality, and Healthcare are also considered important, while Environment and Welfare aren't funded at all. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Flagstaff. The income tax rate is 100%.

The frighteningly efficient Bright Angelian economy, worth an astonishing 29,716 trillion zuchs a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is an enormous, deeply entrenched, broadly diversified black market in Arms Manufacturing, Uranium Mining, Woodchip Exports, and Information Technology. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is a breathtaking 1,114,606 zuchs, but there is a large disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 5,288,451 per year while the poor average 138,632, a ratio of 38.1 to 1.

Barges of dissidents are being "reeducated through water therapy" in the South Red bearded woodchuck Sea, the people are famous throughout the region for their bleached-white teeth, children regularly take part in blood sports that result in extreme boo-boos, and the bonfire of the old paper records can be seen for miles around Flagstaff. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, despite the fact that it is difficult to make it through a day without breaking one of the country's many laws. Bright Angel's national animal is the red bearded woodchuck, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Veni vidi vici.

Bright Angel is ranked 151,247^th in the world and 3^rd in Macfora Forever for Highest Crime Rates, with 1.04 Crimes Per Hour.
