The Nomadic Peoples of Brassicarium is a huge, safe nation, remarkable for its national health service, irreverence towards religion, and absence of drug laws. The compassionate, cynical population of 660 million Brassicae are ruled with an iron fist by the socialist government, which grants its people the freedom to do whatever they like so long as it doesn't involve getting richer than anybody else or challenging the government.

The large, liberal, socially-minded, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Welfare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Mycelium. The average income tax rate is 62.0%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The sizeable but inefficient Brassica economy, worth 25.6 trillion leeks a year, is dominated by the Trout Farming industry, with significant contributions from Basket Weaving, Book Publishing, and Soda Sales. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 38,740 leeks, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The hardest thing for a mining operation to dig through is government red tape, a primitive society is being eroded as its youth flock to the modern world, unpackaged foodstuffs rot on store shelves, and Leader's new door-knocking campaign has the sweet taste of success. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Brassicarium's national animal is the grasshopper, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Brassicarium is ranked 186,021^st in the world and 40^th in Fallen Nations for Most Developed, scoring 53.7 on the Human Development Index.
