The Glorious Empire of Burning Pants is a gargantuan, socially progressive nation, ruled by The King of Braves with a fair hand, and notable for its barren, inhospitable landscape, free-roaming dinosaurs, and absence of drug laws. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic, humorless population of 26.682 billion Burner of Pants live in a state of perpetual fear, as a complete breakdown of social order has led to the rise of order through biker gangs.

There is no government in the normal sense of the word; however, a small group of community-minded, corrupt, liberal, pro-business, outspoken individuals prioritizes Education, with Industry, Healthcare, and Social Policy also on the agenda, while Welfare and Spirituality receive no funds. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of adventure. Income tax is unheard of.

The frighteningly efficient Pants-Burner economy, worth an astonishing 10,075 trillion G-Stones a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Retail, Arms Manufacturing, and Gambling. Average income is an amazing 377,618 G-Stones, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.9 times as much as the poorest.

Children gain their first sex education from reading the dictionary, only the richest get to see out of their windows, 'The Anti-Government Hour' is a popular programme on many of Burning Pants's radio stations, and surrealist houses shaped like mushrooms and volcanoes dominate the wealthiest neighborhoods. 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. Burning Pants's national animal is the Fighting Mechanoid, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is The Oath Sworn Through Courage.

Burning Pants is ranked 349th in the world and 20th in Lazarus for Largest Gambling Industry, scoring 28,367.98 on the Kelly Criterion Productivity Index.
