The Lively Fanatic of Unified Democratic Europe is a colossal, cultured nation, ruled by Bürgen Klopp with a fair hand, and notable for its rum-swilling pirates, frequent executions, and sprawling nuclear power plants. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic, humorless population of 9.793 billion Barlyyians 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 tiny, corrupt, pro-business, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Industry, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Banfield. Income tax is unheard of.
The frighteningly efficient Barlyyian economy, worth a remarkable 4,269 trillion embassies a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Retail, and Soda Sales. Average income is an amazing 435,999 embassies, but there is a vast disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 4,018,276 per year while the poor average 4,764, a ratio of 843 to 1.
Weather reports simply advise Barlyyians to 'look outside', East Lebatuckese luxury goods are plundered by the working class of Unified Democratic Europe, earthquake sirens are a leading cause of hearing loss, and birdsong in the mountains has to be loud enough to drown out nearby jackhammers. Crime, especially youth-related, is so common that it is unusual to encounter someone following the law, perhaps because of the country's complete lack of prisons. Unified Democratic Europe's national animal is the cruel angel, which is also the nation's favorite main course.
Unified Democratic Europe is ranked 294,288th in the world and 3,907th in the West Pacific for Lowest Crime Rates, with 1.81 law-abiding acts per hour.
