Overview • Policies • People • Government • Economy • Rank • Trend • Cards

The Corgious Empire of Etanur is a gargantuan, orderly nation, ruled by the Emperor with an iron fist, and renowned for its museums and concert halls, smutty television, and multi-spousal wedding ceremonies. The compassionate, cynical, humorless population of 16.181 billion Etanurians are ruled with an iron fist by the dictatorship government, which ensures that no-one outside the party gets too rich. In their personal lives, however, citizens are relatively unoppressed; it remains to be seen whether this is because the government genuinely cares about its people, or if it hasn't gotten around to stamping out civil rights yet.

The enormous, socially-minded government prioritizes Education, although Administration, Healthcare, and Defense are also considered important, while Spirituality receives no funds. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Corgi-on-the-Wold. The average income tax rate is 98.3%.

The frighteningly efficient Etanurian economy, worth a remarkable 3,109 trillion fuzzbutts a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is highly specialized, is mostly made up of the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing, Tourism, and Arms Manufacturing. Average income is an impressive 192,176 fuzzbutts, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The Emperor's reputation is hard as nails, colonial subjects have Etanurian culture shoved down their throats, weighted heels are added to military boots to ensure diminutive celebrities meet minimum requirements, and the question "please would you...?" is usually laden with passive aggression. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Etanur's national animal is the corgi, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Scientific Splootism.

Etanur is ranked 3,382^nd in the world and 174^th in The North Pacific for Safest, scoring 137.57 on the Bubble-Rapp Safety Rating.
