The State of Brant Morrison is a gargantuan, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by the Governor with a fair hand, and notable for its absence of drug laws. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic population of 30.927 billion Brant Morrisonians hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.

The minute, liberal, outspoken government, or what there is of one, juggles the competing demands of Education, Industry, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Capital Heights. The average income tax rate is 7.9%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The very strong Brant Morrisonian economy, worth a remarkable 1,407 trillion betales a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is led by the Trout Farming industry, with major contributions from Book Publishing, Door-to-door Insurance Sales, and Cheese Exports. Average income is 45,507 betales, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.7 times as much as the poorest.

Deers are considered a delicacy, Brant Morrison's children are widely acknowledged as the most foul-mouthed in the region, Brant Morrison has designated Capital Heights as its capital city, and the Governor has just been declared ruler of Brant Morrison in an international press conference. Crime is moderate, probably because of the absence of a police force. Brant Morrison's national animal is the deer, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Brant Morrison is ranked 197,163^rd in the world and 312^th in State for Most Scientifically Advanced, scoring 56.57 on the Kurzweil Singularity Index.
