The People's Republic of Bragan is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by Leader with an even hand, and renowned for its parental licensing program, daily referendums, and multi-spousal wedding ceremonies. The hard-nosed, hard-working, humorless, devout population of 29.911 billion Braganians 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 prioritizes Defense, although Law & Order, Education, and Industry are also considered important, while Spirituality and Environment receive no funds. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Bragan City. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 48.3%.

The frighteningly efficient Braganian economy, worth a remarkable 2,708 trillion Brags a year, is quite specialized and dominated by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Woodchip Exports, Information Technology, and Uranium Mining. Black market activity is extensive. Average income is 90,561 Brags, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 272,909 per year while the poor average 23,428, a ratio of 11.6 to 1.

Frequent fliers are obliged to submit to invasive security procedures by government security, society and government have been organized according to a feudal hierarchy, the wearing and manufacture of fur apparel is banned, and reports of arson have doubled since the introduction of a privatised fire protection service. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Bragan's national animal is the badger, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its national religion is a major religion.

Bragan is ranked 7,710^th in the world and 1^st in Territhsolien for Most Advanced Defense Forces, scoring 11,396.03 on the Total War Preparedness Rating.
