The Sovereign Union of Bulraton is a gargantuan, orderly nation, ruled by Archduke Soliman with an iron fist, and notable for its museums and concert halls, anti-smoking policies, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, cynical population of 19.713 billion Allemerians are proud of their wide-ranging civil freedoms, and those who aren't tend to be dragged off the streets by men in dark suits and hustled into cars with tinted windows.

The large government juggles the competing demands of Education, Healthcare, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Allemantheia. The average income tax rate is 90.9%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Bulratonian economy, worth a remarkable 2,793 trillion Runds a year, is quite specialized and led by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing and Information Technology. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 141,721 Runds, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The monarchy has adopted absolute primogeniture, nobody looks each other in the eye at neighborhood block parties any more, pilots always remember to send their doctors a Maxxmas card, and mystics are claiming that a simultaneous rise in scepticism and education budgets is correlation rather than causation. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Bulraton's national animal is the Caribou, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Bulraton is ranked 14,441^st in the world and 11^th in The Commonwealth Society for Lowest Crime Rates, with 94.8 law-abiding acts per hour.
