The Republic of Burewala is a mid-sized, efficient nation, remarkable for its barren, inhospitable landscape, absence of drug laws, and complete absence of social welfare. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic, devout population of 50 million Burewalans live in a state of perpetual fear, as a complete breakdown of social order has led to the rise of order through biker gangs.

The tiny, liberal, pro-business, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Spirituality, Defense, and Education. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 6.9%.

The thriving Burewalan economy, worth 3.27 trillion pesos a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Uranium Mining industry, with significant contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Beef-Based Agriculture, and Retail. Average income is 65,330 pesos, but there is an enormous disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 362,855 per year while the poor average 5,899, a ratio of 61.5 to 1.

The government is constantly playing a game of four-dimensional economic chess with health insurance firms, members of ethnic minorities are more often called "boy" or "girl" than by their actual names, sometimes a whole prison wing will house a single prisoner, and finders keepers is the law of the land. Crime, especially youth-related, is a problem, probably because of the absence of a police force. Burewala's national animal is the sheep, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Burewala is ranked 113,921^st in the world and 9^th in Crimsons puppets for Most Developed, scoring 59.15 on the Human Development Index.
