The Corporate-Owned Kingdom of Economic Nirvana is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by Government Incorporated CEO Lord Phoenix with a fair hand, and renowned for its anti-smoking policies, flagrant waste-dumping, and absence of drug laws. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic, humorless, devout population of 43.309 billion Economic Nirvanans live in a state of perpetual fear, as a complete breakdown of social order has led to the rise of order through biker gangs.

The minute, corrupt, pro-business, outspoken government, or what there is of one, is solely concerned with Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Lucre. Income tax is unheard of.

The frighteningly efficient Economic Nirvanan economy, worth an astonishing 17,740 trillion stock certificates a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is broadly diversified and led by the Gambling industry, with major contributions from Retail, Soda Sales, and Automobile Manufacturing. Average income is an amazing 409,626 stock certificates, but there is a vast disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 3,416,958 per year while the poor average 9,646, a ratio of 354 to 1.

New homeowners go furniture hunting with crowbars, a suspicious number of John Smiths are known to donate to Economic Nirvanan politicians, a surprising number of police officers have been arrested for corporate weasel sacrifices, and religious households enthusiastically use whips in private. Crime, especially youth-related, is all-pervasive, probably because of the absence of a police force. Economic Nirvana's national animal is the corporate weasel, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is worship of the Almighty Dollar.

Economic Nirvana is ranked 293,889th in the world and 5,298th in The East Pacific for Lowest Crime Rates, with 2.89 law-abiding acts per hour.
