The Stoic Federation of Brighterton is a massive, efficient nation, ruled by Ryder Jordan with an even hand, and renowned for its irreverence towards religion, punitive income tax rates, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate population of 1.993 billion Brightertonians enjoy extensive civil freedoms, particularly in social issues, while business tends to be more regulated.
The large government juggles the competing demands of Education, Healthcare, and Welfare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Chesterfield. The average income tax rate is 64.0%, and even higher for the wealthy.
The frighteningly efficient Brightertonian economy, worth 204 trillion bronzes a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Retail, Beef-Based Agriculture, and Cheese Exports. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an impressive 102,798 bronzes, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.
Condos feature wall-mounted cages containing endangered animals, the Messiah (formerly known as Brian) is a mayoral candidate, male politicians lose their jobs for staring too long at their female counterparts, and saying "don't do anything that Ryder Jordan wouldn't do" doesn't exclude a great deal. Crime is totally unknown. Brighterton's national animal is the sloth, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Slothianity.
Brighterton is ranked 145,384th in the world and 140th in Wintreath for Highest Disposable Incomes, with 37,007.51 Standard Monetary Units.
