The Queen's State of Lordre Bruin is a gargantuan, efficient nation, notable for its barren, inhospitable landscape, complete absence of social welfare, and spontaneously combusting cars. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic population of 30.246 billion Lordre Bruinians are effectively ruled by a group of massive corporations, who run for political office and provide their well-off citizens with world-class goods and services. Their poorer citizens, however, are mostly starving to death while being urged to go out and get real jobs. The populace has reasonably extensive civil rights, although these are mostly aimed at allowing them to buy whatever they like.

The minute, pro-business, outspoken government, or what there is of one, juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Industry, and Education. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 5.0%.

The very strong Lordre Bruinian economy, worth a remarkable 1,222 trillion betales a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is led by the Woodchip Exports industry, with major contributions from Basket Weaving, Uranium Mining, and Gambling. Average income is 40,403 betales, but there is a vast disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 274,695 per year while the poor average 2,170, a ratio of 126 to 1.

Students are known to arrive at school in their pyjamas, the nation has opened its arms to an influx of refugees, young children are regularly seen wagering pocket money at blackjack tables, and citizens are regularly found digging for treasure in their gardens. Crime is a major problem, with the police force struggling against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. Lordre Bruin's national animal is the deer, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Lordre Bruin is ranked 288,776th in the world and 9th in Kiribati for Lowest Crime Rates, with 34.19 law-abiding acts per hour.
