The Federal Republic of BRKA is a mammoth, safe nation, remarkable for its frequent executions, public floggings, and suspicion of poets. The hard-working, democratic population of 7.413 billion BRKAians are effectively ruled by a group of massive corporations, who run for political office and provide their well-off citizens with world-class goods and services. Their poorer citizens, however, are mostly starving to death while being urged to go out and get real jobs. The populace has reasonably extensive civil rights, although these are mostly aimed at allowing them to buy whatever they like.

The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Healthcare. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 25.0%.

The very strong BRKAian economy, worth 299 trillion BRKA Shareses a year, is quite specialized and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Uranium Mining, Arms Manufacturing, and Furniture Restoration. Average income is 40,391 BRKA Shareses, with the richest citizens earning 9.5 times as much as the poorest.

The silencing of dissent speaks volumes about the quality of BRKAian democracy, defense lawyers suggestively note to juries how flagrantly happy victims were, nobody likes bad boys any more, and graffiti artists spend lengthy periods of time in jail. Crime, especially youth-related, is almost non-existent, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. BRKA's national animal is the cobra, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

BRKA is ranked 295,125^th in the world and 18^th in NYSE for Largest Insurance Industry, scoring -8.43 on the Risk Expulsion Effectiveness Rating.
