The United Commonwealth of New Bradenia Ghost is a titanic, socially progressive nation, ruled by Arno Tyranic with an even hand, and remarkable for its unlimited-speed roads, frequent executions, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, humorless, devout population of 17.728 billion New Bradenians 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 large, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Industry, Education, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of New Glasgow. The average income tax rate is 90.9%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient New Bradenia Ghostian economy, worth a remarkable 2,638 trillion Bradenian Dollars a year, is led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Tourism, and Woodchip Exports. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 148,859 Bradenian Dollars, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.0 times as much as the poorest.

Private digital records now come with a convenient "download" button, the government guarantees extra-soft tissues to fire-snorting elephants, the government is proudly free of crabs, and worship days have replaced sick days. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. New Bradenia Ghost's national animal is the Old Moose, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

New Bradenia Ghost is ranked 277,104^th in the world and 3,649^th in The East Pacific for Largest Insurance Industry, scoring -8.61 on the Risk Expulsion Effectiveness Rating.
