The Kingdom of Brototh is a titanic, socially progressive nation, ruled by Richard Arxon with an even hand, and remarkable for its deadly medical pandemics, smutty television, and irreverence towards religion. The hard-nosed, hard-working, humorless population of 16.636 billion Brotothians enjoy extensive civil freedoms, particularly in social issues, while business tends to be more regulated.

The large, corrupt, liberal government juggles the competing demands of Industry, Education, and Defense. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Wigan. The average income tax rate is 98.1%.

The frighteningly efficient Brotothian economy, worth a remarkable 6,015 trillion lashans a year, is broadly diversified and mostly comprised of black market activity, especially in Information Technology, Arms Manufacturing, and Retail. Average income is an amazing 361,592 lashans, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.7 times as much as the poorest.

Nobody wants to know how the sausage is made, declaring that "some kids are just born evil" is not endearing Richard Arxon to progressive thinkers, the government now pays the "Really Awesome Super Heroes" (RASH) to catch evildoers, and exterminator companies deploy nerve gas in turf wars. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Brototh's national animal is the phoenix, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is the Cult of Godsinia.

Brototh is ranked 298,070^th in the world and 72^nd in Thaecia for Nicest Citizens, with 0.51 average smiles per day.
