The Democratic States of Brutal Gladiator is a mammoth, cultured nation, remarkable for its barren, inhospitable landscape, frequent executions, and zero percent divorce rate. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic, devout population of 7.554 billion Brutal Gladiatorians are highly moralistic and fiercely conservative, in the sense that they tend to believe most things should be outlawed. People who have good jobs and work quietly at them are lauded; others are viewed with suspicion.

The relatively small, moralistic government juggles the competing demands of Industry, Law & Order, and Administration. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 12.8%.

The very strong Brutal Gladiatorian economy, worth 391 trillion Golds a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Retail industry, with major contributions from Door-to-door Insurance Sales, Arms Manufacturing, and Basket Weaving. Average income is 51,797 Golds, but there is a large disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 205,346 per year while the poor average 8,826, a ratio of 23.3 to 1.

Scenic beaches are now protected by massive concrete walls, the streets are increasingly clogged with poverty-stricken beggars, fruit market traders let their stock spoil rather than reduce their prices at the day's end, and tardiness has increased after carpooling was classified as a criminal offense. Crime, especially youth-related, is a problem, possibly because it is difficult to make it through a day without breaking one of the country's many regulations. Brutal Gladiator's national animal is the Black Widow, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Brutal Gladiator is ranked 221,507^th in the world and 5,248^th in eta for Most Secular, with 14.79 Atheism Rate.
