The United Democratic Provinces of Brapallia is a colossal, cultured nation, ruled by Alexander Hamilton with a fair hand, and renowned for its digital currency, multi-spousal wedding ceremonies, and ban on automobiles. The compassionate, democratic population of 6.536 billion Brapallians enjoy a sensible mix of personal and economic freedoms, while the political process is open and the people's right to vote held sacrosanct.

The medium-sized, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of New Brapallia City. The average income tax rate is 73.2%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Brapallian economy, worth 904 trillion pesos a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Book Publishing, and Basket Weaving. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an impressive 138,319 pesos, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.5 times as much as the poorest.

The new cheese tax is colloquially known as "wheel welfare", neighbourhood gossips whip up controversy about those receiving adult merchandise, penny whistles have been rebranded 'tin hornpipes', and the atmosphere in Brapallian boardrooms is turning more gay. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Brapallia's national animal is the kangaroo, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Hamiltonism.

Brapallia is ranked 17,358th in the world and 974th in Lazarus for Largest Publishing Industry, scoring 9,505.85 on the Bella Potter Productivity e-Index.
