The Republic of Labudovo Brdo is a huge, efficient nation, renowned for its public floggings, complete lack of prisons, and frequent executions. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical population of 243 million Labudovo Brdoans are ruled with an iron fist by the corrupt, dictatorship government, which oppresses anyone who isn't on the board of a Fortune 500 company. Large corporations tend to be above the law, and use their financial clout to gain ever-increasing government benefits at the expense of the poor and unemployed.

The relatively small, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Healthcare. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 13.7%.

The powerhouse Labudovo Brdoan economy, worth 22.8 trillion labuds a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Uranium Mining, Woodchip Exports, and Book Publishing. Average income is 94,000 labuds, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 285,415 per year while the poor average 24,058, a ratio of 11.9 to 1.

Politicians that report exaggerated crowd sizes for their speeches are dismissed for being delusional, there has been a series of riots between local cannibals and health food advocates, angry men scowl at each other across chess boards, and it's not just poseurs who wear oversized sound-cancelling headphones as they walk the city streets. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Labudovo Brdo's national animal is the Swan, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Labudovo Brdo is ranked 114,670^th in the world and 74^th in Blue Ridge for Lowest Crime Rates, with 66.31 law-abiding acts per hour.
