The Queen's State of Braemora is a gargantuan, socially progressive nation, renowned for its complete lack of public education, absence of drug laws, and complete absence of social welfare. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic population of 31.595 billion Braemorans live in a state of perpetual fear, as a complete breakdown of social order has led to the rise of order through biker gangs.

The minute, liberal, pro-business, outspoken government, or what there is of one, is solely concerned with Industry. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 5.0%.

The very strong Braemoran economy, worth a remarkable 1,156 trillion betales a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is quite specialized and led by the Book Publishing industry, with major contributions from Door-to-door Insurance Sales, Furniture Restoration, and Beef-Based Agriculture. Average income is 36,605 betales, but there is a vast disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 248,871 per year while the poor average 1,966, a ratio of 126 to 1.

Voting is voluntary. Crime is a major problem, probably because of the absence of a police force. Braemora's national animal is the deer, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Braemora is ranked 6,597^th in the world and 56^th in State for Highest Unexpected Death Rate, scoring 122.73 on the Bus Surprisal Index.
