The Kingdom of Brightheart is a massive, orderly nation, ruled by Brightheart with an iron fist, and renowned for its avowedly heterosexual populace, triple-decker prams, and frequent executions. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless, devout population of 1.461 billion Brightheartians are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."

The large, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Administration, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Thunder Clan camp. The average income tax rate is 56.3%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The powerhouse Brightheartian economy, worth 126 trillion Preys a year, is quite specialized and dominated by the Gambling industry, with significant contributions from Pizza Delivery, Basket Weaving, and Woodchip Exports. Black market activity is rampant. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 86,849 Preys, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.9 times as much as the poorest.

Wealthy students ride to school past mendicant dropouts, scenic mountain valleys are flooded with water as damming projects get underway, the state has declared war on the environment and environmentalists by association, and city-dwellers are forcibly moved to farming communes in the countryside. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Brightheart's national animal is the Warrior cats, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its national religion is Star clan.

Brightheart is ranked 330,012th in the world and 27th in Norrys new puppet region for Largest Trout Fishing Sector, scoring -10.58 on the Nemo Depletion Efficiency Index.
