The Republic of Brovora is a large, cultured nation, renowned for its museums and concert halls, national health service, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate, devout population of 171 million Brovorans 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 enormous government juggles the competing demands of Education, Healthcare, and Administration. The average income tax rate is 68.4%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The Brovoran economy, worth 8.58 trillion lurs a year, is led by the Basket Weaving industry, with significant contributions from Beef-Based Agriculture, Uranium Mining, and Door-to-door Insurance Sales. Average income is 50,149 lurs, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.0 times as much as the poorest.

Interest rates mysteriously drop whenever the CBB Governor goes house hunting, the national security service are a bunch of crooks, kids looking for shark teeth have become ancient history, and kids are taught in schools to argue with their parents. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Brovora's national animal is the ermine, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Brovora is ranked 161,722^nd in the world and 16^th in Elysion for Largest Manufacturing Sector, scoring 7,662.29 on the Gooback-Jerbs Productivity Index.
