The I hate my nation name of BR Bob is a colossal, genial nation, ruled by Edwin Pike with an even hand, and notable for its keen interest in outer space, frequent executions, and irreverence towards religion. The hard-working population of 2.856 billion Bobs have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The tiny government juggles the competing demands of Education, Welfare, and Defense. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Bob City. The average income tax rate is 8.7%.

The Bobian economy, worth 166 trillion Bob Pounds a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Door-to-door Insurance Sales industry, with major contributions from Book Publishing, Gambling, and Woodchip Exports. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 58,261 Bob Pounds, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.5 times as much as the poorest.

There's a bright dawn ahead for BR Bob, government theft from poor artists to give to rich allies has been dubbed the "reverse Robin Hood" policy, clowns are being rounded up and admitted to mental institutions, and almost every singles' party has a clergy and courtesans theme. Crime, especially youth-related, is relatively low. BR Bob's national animal is the Bulldog, which can occasionally be seen sifting through garbage in the nation's cities, and its national religion is Secularism.

BR Bob is ranked 132,145th in the world and 92nd in Corsair for Smartest Citizens, with 32.16 quips per hour.
