The Glorious Empire of Burning Pants is a gargantuan, socially progressive nation, ruled by The King of Braves with a fair hand, and renowned for its unlimited-speed roads, keen interest in outer space, and flagrant waste-dumping. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic, humorless population of 26.791 billion Burner of Pants live in a state of perpetual fear, as a complete breakdown of social order has led to the rise of order through biker gangs.

There is no government in the normal sense of the word; however, a small group of community-minded, corrupt, liberal, pro-business, outspoken individuals prioritizes Education, with Industry, Healthcare, and Social Policy also on the agenda, while Welfare and Spirituality aren't funded at all. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of adventure. Income tax is unheard of.

The frighteningly efficient Pants-Burner economy, worth an astonishing 10,133 trillion G-Stones 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 Retail, Arms Manufacturing, and Gambling. Average income is an amazing 378,238 G-Stones, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.0 times as much as the poorest.

The nation's once beautiful countryside has turned brown as farmers spray potent pesticides, ships no longer sail as no one wants to encounter Pants-Burner pirates, rioting during the nation's hosting of ORDER caused one million G-Stones of property damage, and breast milk lattes are the newest fad among hip urbanites. Crime, especially youth-related, is so common that it is unusual to encounter someone following the law, perhaps because of the country's complete lack of prisons. Burning Pants's national animal is the Fighting Mechanoid, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is The Oath Sworn Through Courage.

Burning Pants is ranked 321st in the world and 17th in Lazarus for Highest Disposable Incomes, with 378,238.37 Standard Monetary Units.
