The Großreich of Bruschenland is a colossal, cultured nation, ruled by Buddy Müller with an iron fist, and renowned for its closed borders, museums and concert halls, and zero percent divorce rate. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless, devout population of 5.16 billion Brussians 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 medium-sized, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Eisengrad. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 49.0%.

The frighteningly efficient Brussian economy, worth 645 trillion Brussian Marks a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Retail, Uranium Mining, and Information Technology. Black market activity is notable. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 125,183 Brussian Marks, but there is a large disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 518,027 per year while the poor average 19,860, a ratio of 26.1 to 1.

Male celebrity chefs are laughed at for their lack of manliness, where there's a will there is usually a password manager, celebrity foodies are biting a huge chunk out of the government budget, and visiting dignitaries make excuses to leave functions early and head to the nearest pub. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Bruschenland's national animal is the Bear, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its national religion is Orthodox Christianity.

Bruschenland is ranked 266,507th in the world and 3rd in Sceniverse for Largest Automobile Manufacturing Sector, scoring -8.6 on the Henry Ford Productivity Index.
