The Oppressed Peoples of Brain of Einstein is a titanic, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Fred Ansteen with a fair hand, and renowned for its punitive income tax rates and stringent health and safety legislation. The democratic population of 16.925 billion Brain of Einsteinians are free to do what they want with their own bodies, and vote for whomever they like in elections; if they go into business, however, they are regulated to within an inch of their lives.

The enormous, socially-minded, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Education, Welfare, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Relativity City. The average income tax rate is 53.3%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The large but sluggish Brain of Einsteinian economy, worth 373 trillion kronor a year, is quite specialized and led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Retail, Basket Weaving, and Pizza Delivery. Black market activity is notable. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 22,053 kronor, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Signatures have been replaced with illegible scribbles, love is a precious butterfly to be crushed under diplomatic protocol, flash floods that dams could have controlled regularly ravage small towns in mountain valleys, and public footpaths are being slowly eroded by the burgeoning number of ramblers. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Brain of Einstein's national animal is the porpoise, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans, and its national religion is Scientific Mathology.

Brain of Einstein is ranked 193,947^th in the world and 2^nd in Swedenborg for Highest Unexpected Death Rate, scoring 31.26 on the Bus Surprisal Index.
