The Smash Hit Movie Version of Brocklandia is a gargantuan, socially progressive nation, ruled by the biggest squirrels you ever saw with a fair hand, and renowned for its museums and concert halls, flagrant waste-dumping, and unlimited-speed roads. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic, cheerful population of 25.989 billion Brocklandians 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 minute, corrupt, liberal, outspoken government, or what there is of one, juggles the competing demands of Administration, Industry, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Darkest Surburbia. Income tax is unheard of.

The frighteningly efficient Brocklandian economy, worth a remarkable 9,762 trillion goobers a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is broadly diversified and led by the Retail industry, with significant contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, and Soda Sales. Average income is an amazing 375,640 goobers, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.0 times as much as the poorest.

Politicians fear the otherworldly wrath of poorly made cheese, giant dancing howler monkeys with strange deformities like three eyes and tentacles have been seen prancing through the countryside where industrial waste is dumped, the main interest rates change daily based on the latest news story, and the nation was recently voted "most likely to betray its allies". Crime, especially youth-related, is so common that it is unusual to encounter someone following the law, perhaps because of the country's complete lack of prisons. Brocklandia's national animal is the giant dancing howler monkey, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its national religion is --uhm--maybe apathy--or whatever.

Brocklandia is ranked 286,530th in the world and 302nd in The Region That Has No Big Banks for Safest, scoring 1.22 on the Bubble-Rapp Safety Rating.
