The Queendom of Brocelind is a huge, socially progressive nation, remarkable for its barren, inhospitable landscape. The hard-working population of 250 million Brocelindians enjoy extensive civil freedoms, particularly in social issues, while business tends to be more regulated.

The tiny government juggles the competing demands of Education, Welfare, and Industry. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 8.3%.

The thriving Brocelindian economy, worth 22.0 trillion marks a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Pizza Delivery industry, with major contributions from Gambling, Retail, and Soda Sales. Average income is 87,861 marks, with the richest citizens earning 6.1 times as much as the poorest.

Enemy navies sail within bombardment range of major coastal cities with impunity, epileptic patients switch their medications to whichever has a 'buy one get one free' offer, children as young as eight can present logical proofs for the existence of the afterlife, and some people will do literally anything to be in the spotlight. Crime, especially youth-related, is moderate, probably because of the absence of a police force. Brocelind's national animal is the kelpie, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Brocelind is ranked 177,607^th in the world and 62^nd in Hannan20201 for Most Advanced Public Transport, scoring 435.59 on the Societal Mobility Rating.
