The Controlled States of Brenadin is a huge, genial nation, notable for its compulsory military service and irreverence towards religion. The compassionate population of 544 million Brenadinians have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Welfare, Law & Order, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Trellisburg. The average income tax rate is 29.6%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The Brenadinian economy, worth 26.6 trillion Brents a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Beef-Based Agriculture, Basket Weaving, and Book Publishing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 48,827 Brents, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Brenadin's national animal is the Kucho, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.
