The State of Brookfield Cross is a gargantuan, efficient nation, remarkable for its complete lack of prisons. The hard-working, democratic population of 24.769 billion Brookfield Crossians are effectively ruled by a group of massive corporations, who run for political office and provide their well-off citizens with world-class goods and services. Their poorer citizens, however, are mostly starving to death while being urged to go out and get real jobs. The populace has reasonably extensive civil rights, although these are mostly aimed at allowing them to buy whatever they like.

The tiny, outspoken government is primarily concerned with Welfare, although Healthcare, Education, and Industry are also considered important, while Spirituality and Defense aren't funded at all. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Capital Heights. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 7.9%.

The thriving Brookfield Crossian economy, worth a remarkable 1,391 trillion betales a year, is led by the Gambling industry, with significant contributions from Soda Sales, Uranium Mining, and Book Publishing. Average income is 56,190 betales, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 158,614 per year while the poor average 15,934, a ratio of 10.0 to 1.

Euthanasia is illegal, voting is voluntary, corporations donate huge sums of money to favored politicians, and Brookfield Cross has designated Capital Heights as its capital city. Crime is a problem, perhaps because of the country's complete lack of prisons. Brookfield Cross's national animal is the deer, which can occasionally be seen sifting through garbage in the nation's cities.

Brookfield Cross is ranked 254,487^th in the world and 3^rd in Port Moresby for Most Patriotic, with 1.63 flags saluted per person per day.
