The Queen's State of Bruce is a gargantuan, socially progressive nation, renowned for its absence of drug laws, complete absence of social welfare, and spontaneously combusting cars. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic population of 23.188 billion Bruceans live in a state of perpetual fear, as a complete breakdown of social order has led to the rise of order through biker gangs.

The minute, liberal, pro-business, outspoken government, or what there is of one, is solely concerned with Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Capital Heights. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 4.6%.

The very strong Brucean economy, worth a remarkable 1,119 trillion betales 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 Book Publishing, Woodchip Exports, and Furniture Restoration. Average income is 48,290 betales, but there is a vast disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 328,319 per year while the poor average 2,594, a ratio of 126 to 1.

All tariffs have been abolished, citizens are allowed to rise or fall based on their own merits, rioting and unrest sweep the nation, and Bruce has designated Capital Heights as its capital city. Crime is a major problem, probably because of the absence of a police force. Bruce's national animal is the deer, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Bruce is ranked 199,019^th in the world and 2^nd in Manama for Most Corrupt Governments, with 1.38 kickbacks per hour.
