The Very Handsome BB Puppet of Hyper Brightonburg is a colossal, orderly nation, ruled by Sgt Shultz with an iron fist, and notable for its state-planned economy, compulsory military service, and punitive income tax rates. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, devout population of 9.763 billion Hyper Brightonburgians are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."

The industrial sector is led by the Automobile Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Woodchip Exports, Retail, and Uranium Mining. Average income is 44,299 Marks, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.9 times as much as the poorest.
