The Queendom of Brane is a tiny, orderly nation, remarkable for its compulsory military service and complete absence of social welfare. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical population of 9 million Braneans are ruled by a mostly-benevolent dictator, who grants the populace the freedom to live their own lives but watches carefully for anyone to slip up.

The medium-sized, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Spirituality. The average income tax rate is 28.9%.

The Branean economy, worth 420 billion rubles a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Trout Farming industry, with major contributions from Cheese Exports, Tourism, and Gambling. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 46,688 rubles, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.1 times as much as the poorest.

Tourists from around the world come to visit the country's famous rainforests. Crime, especially youth-related, is relatively low, thanks to a capable police force. Brane's national animal is the dove, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Brane is ranked 103,345^th in the world and 15^th in Pacifism for Most Eco-Friendly Governments, scoring 878.59 on the Dolphin Recycling Awareness Index.
