The State of Ershiyi is a gargantuan, socially progressive nation, ruled by the Governor with a fair hand, and notable for its barren, inhospitable landscape, absence of drug laws, and complete absence of social welfare. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic population of 11.713 billion Ershiyians 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, liberal, pro-business, outspoken government, or what there is of one, is primarily concerned with Defense, although Industry and Education are also considered important, while Spirituality and International Aid are ignored. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Westminster. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 5.0%.

The very strong Ershiyian economy, worth 673 trillion betales a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is fairly diversified and led by the Retail industry, with major contributions from Automobile Manufacturing, Information Technology, and Pizza Delivery. Average income is 57,465 betales, but there is a vast disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 374,262 per year while the poor average 3,499, a ratio of 107 to 1.

Ershiyi has designated Westminster as its capital city, The Governor has just been declared ruler of Ershiyi in an international press conference, the government's official stance on religion is that it is so very silly, and hedge fund managers are diversifying into herbaceous borders. Crime is a major problem, probably because of the absence of a police force. Ershiyi's national animal is the deer, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Ershiyi is ranked 9,441^st in the world and 1^st in Zambia for Largest Automobile Manufacturing Sector, scoring 7,013.24 on the Henry Ford Productivity Index.
