Nope, a bunch of floating islands and large parts of the sky, kinda the opposite of a planet in a mythological sense.

I cannot speak for certain any specific examples which may constitute in modern terminology a ‘purge’, but metaphorical purges have occurred several times in recent British history that reshuffled and reorganised the parliamentary and nationwide political arena.
The BN is a semi-constitutional monarchy.

Canon. At the local level Citizens upon majority vote of total voting population (and wherein a quorum of 3/4 of the Citizens cast a ballot) may vote for limited bonds and levies of limited duration issued by liens on property based on real properties (including land value).

BN taxes businesses more severely than individuals.

non-canon. Technically the Commonwealth was conceived as the literary equivalent of the plucky sidekick nation to the original protagonist nation that fell by the wayside long ago.

BN does not legally recognize (or does not allow) corporate fast-food franchises.

The legion would still be in the historically hated part of the story, if it goes one of the success parts. So, at the moment, not really.

BN is inside a non-standard fantasy setting
