The Community of Bears in Brannack is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by Harrahn Rosewoods with a fair hand, and remarkable for its museums and concert halls, smutty television, and spontaneously combusting cars. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic population of 16.755 billion Bears 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, prioritizes Education, although Law & Order, Spirituality, and Industry are also considered important, while International Aid and Social Policy are ignored. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Harr Brannack'drin-eh. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 4.4%.

The thriving Ursine economy, worth a remarkable 1,329 trillion jars of honey a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is broadly diversified and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Gambling, Information Technology, and Door-to-door Insurance Sales. Average income is 79,373 jars of honey, but there is an enormous disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 447,540 per year while the poor average 6,930, a ratio of 64.6 to 1.

Adverts proclaim it has to be healthy if the Mornay uses hand-grated Gallopavian Gruyère, one of the nation's leading exports is empty platitudes, bronze and marble supplies are running low as sculptors depict full-figured subjects, and there's an aura of pseudoscience around academia. Crime is a problem, with the police force struggling against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. Bears in Brannack's national animal is the four-horn, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Ursionity.
