The Democratic Republic of Brusselstein is a mammoth, genial nation, ruled by Aryan Vaidya with a fair hand, and renowned for its daily referendums, ubiquitous missile silos, and free-roaming dinosaurs. The compassionate, democratic, devout population of 6.699 billion Brusselsteinians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The large, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Defense, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Königsberg. The average income tax rate is 98.5%.

The frighteningly efficient Brusselsteinian economy, worth a remarkable 1,502 trillion Euros a year, is quite specialized and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Book Publishing, and Arms Manufacturing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an amazing 224,258 Euros, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.1 times as much as the poorest.

Taxpayers receive expenditure reports from the Grand High Poobah of the Order of Violet, frequent fliers are obliged to submit to invasive security procedures by government security, parking's carefree without parking car fees, and the best way to be heard in politics is to speak softly and carry a big comedy prop. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Brusselstein's national animal is the Brusselstenian Falcon, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Protestant Christianity.

Brusselstein is ranked 6,519^th in the world and 132^nd in Europe for Most Eco-Friendly Governments, scoring 7,238.22 on the Dolphin Recycling Awareness Index.
