The Empire of the BB of BrightonBurg is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by Kaiser Janos II with an iron fist, and remarkable for its fear of technology, smutty television, and keen interest in outer space. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless, devout population of 45.292 billion BrightonBurgians are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."

The minute, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government, or what there is of one, is solely concerned with Defense. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Greater Brightonburg City. Income tax is unheard of.

The frighteningly efficient BrightonBurgian economy, worth an astonishing 23,658 trillion Silver Coins a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Uranium Mining industry, with significant contributions from Retail, Woodchip Exports, and Door-to-door Insurance Sales. Black market activity is extensive. State-owned companies are common. Average income is a breathtaking 522,348 Silver Coins, but there is a large disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 2,135,140 per year while the poor average 84,603, a ratio of 25.2 to 1.

The dead are minced up and sold to people in burger form, the government awards prizes to television shows featuring stereotype-breaking minority roles, Renaissance frescos are being chiselled off public walls, and frequent fliers are obliged to submit to invasive security procedures by government security. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, despite the fact that it is difficult to make it through a day without breaking one of the country's many laws. BrightonBurg's national animal is the Boar, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Holy Orange Catholic Church ⛪.

BrightonBurg is ranked 1,347^th in the world and 1^st in One big Island for Most Patriotic, with 110.57 flags saluted per person per day.
