The Purple Unicorn of Purple Unicorn is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by The Unicorn with an even hand, and remarkable for its disturbing lack of elderly people, infamous sell-swords, and ritual sacrifices. The hard-nosed, humorless, devout population of 12.377 billion Purple Unicorns are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The medium-sized, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Unicorn City. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 73.0%.

The frighteningly efficient A Purple Unicorn economy, worth a remarkable 3,271 trillion Hoofs a year, is fairly diversified and mostly comprised of black market activity, especially in Arms Manufacturing, Woodchip Exports, Information Technology, and Uranium Mining. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an amazing 264,314 Hoofs, with the richest citizens earning 6.8 times as much as the poorest.

It is illegal to liberate slaves, people accuse the government of being in bed with Big Safety, nobody draws smiley faces on receipts anymore, and Moby Dick can only be sold by pornographers. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Purple Unicorn's national animal is the Unicorn, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its national religion is Purple Unicorne.

Purple Unicorn is ranked 33,921st in the world and 14th in Nerdlandia for Largest Populations, with 12.4 billion capita.
