The Holy Empire of Euro 027 is a colossal, orderly nation, remarkable for its avowedly heterosexual populace, parental licensing program, and free-roaming dinosaurs. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical population of 6.787 billion Euro 027ians are ruled by a mostly-benevolent dictator, who grants the populace the freedom to live their own lives but watches carefully for anyone to slip up.
The medium-sized, corrupt, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Industry. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 66.4%.
The frighteningly efficient Euro 027ian economy, worth 925 trillion Cards a year, is fairly diversified and dominated by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Trout Farming, Beef-Based Agriculture, and Tourism. Black market activity is rampant. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an impressive 136,309 Cards, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 418,308 per year while the poor average 34,360, a ratio of 12.2 to 1.
Family trees become bare as entire branches are lopped off, it is mandatory to learn evolution in schools, lawyers turn down litigation cases and corporate work in order to focus on lucrative public defence work, and the Ministry of Health has reported a sharp increase in the incidence of delayed menopause. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Euro 027's national animal is the Raven, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.
Euro 027 is ranked 139,761st in the world and 472nd in Memeland United for Largest Publishing Industry, scoring 1,960.84 on the Bella Potter Productivity e-Index.
