The Armed Republic of Euro 194 is a colossal, environmentally stunning nation, renowned for its avowedly heterosexual populace, frequent executions, and stringent health and safety legislation. The hard-nosed, humorless, devout population of 6.715 billion Euro 194ians are highly moralistic and fiercely conservative, in the sense that they tend to believe most things should be outlawed. People who have good jobs and work quietly at them are lauded; others are viewed with suspicion.
The large, corrupt, moralistic government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Industry. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 69.0%.
The frighteningly efficient Euro 194ian economy, worth 770 trillion Cards a year, is fairly diversified and dominated by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Uranium Mining, and Woodchip Exports. Black market activity is extensive. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 114,669 Cards, with the richest citizens earning 5.6 times as much as the poorest.
The government invades its allies more than its enemies, scientists regularly clone human beings for research purposes, the jails are alive with the sound of birdsong, and adult magazines are having a sales resurgence as internet anonymity disappears. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Euro 194's national animal is the Raven, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.
Euro 194 is ranked 230,719th in the world and 592nd in Memeland United for Most Primitive, scoring -108.94 on the Scary Big Number Scale.
