The Democratic States of Brogas is a massive, safe nation, renowned for its rum-swilling pirates, free-roaming dinosaurs, and national health service. The compassionate, democratic population of 2.355 billion Brogasians love a good election, and the government gives them plenty of them. Universities tend to be full of students debating the merits of various civil and political rights, while businesses are tightly regulated and the wealthy viewed with suspicion.

The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Qal'thab City. The average income tax rate is 55.0%.

The frighteningly efficient Brogasian economy, worth 289 trillion Taels a year, is led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Uranium Mining. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 122,713 Taels, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.7 times as much as the poorest.

Scientists take credit every time it rains in the Plains of Perdition, rural Brogasians are missing the forest for the numerous cellular towers they replaced, a sledgehammer and a spray can are seen as the default tools of political debate, and in musicals everybody's a little bit racist. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. Brogas's national animal is the Saker Falcon, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Brogas is ranked 18,161^st in the world and 79^th in the Plains of Perdition for Smartest Citizens, with 71.35 quips per hour.
