The Holy Empire of Eng Appyrpencterordia is a colossal, efficient nation, ruled by King Jamal with an iron fist, and renowned for its otherworldly petting zoo, punitive income tax rates, and suspicion of poets. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless population of 9.901 billion Eng Appyrpencterordians are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."

The enormous, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Java. The average income tax rate is 95.0%.

The frighteningly efficient Eng Appyrpencterordian economy, worth a remarkable 1,825 trillion florins a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is an enormous, deeply entrenched, quite specialized black market in Gambling, Tourism, Retail, and Arms Manufacturing. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is an impressive 184,387 florins, with the richest citizens earning 5.7 times as much as the poorest.

Stealing from a clothesline is a serious offence, the institution of marriage is held sacred and strictly enforced, an increasing percentage of the population's youth have homosexual parents, and Eng Appyrpencterordia Barrier Island residents anxiously await their 'Bridge to Somewhere'. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Eng Appyrpencterordia's national animal is the dove, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to toxic air pollution, and its national religion is Islam.

Eng Appyrpencterordia is ranked 1,355th in the world and 54th in The North Pacific for Most Advanced Public Education, scoring 23,760.74 on the Edu-tellignce® Test Score.
