The United Kingdom of Eruopia is a massive, socially progressive nation, ruled by Octavious Posidon Montague with an even hand, and remarkable for its compulsory military service. Its hard-nosed, hard-working population of 2.402 billion are either ruled by a sleek, efficient government or a conglomerate of multinational corporations; it's difficult to tell which.

It is difficult to tell where the omnipresent, corrupt, pro-business government stops and the rest of society begins, but it concentrates mainly on Defence, although Education and Law & Order are on the agenda. It meets every day to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Zathoria. The average income tax rate is 97%. A powerhouse of a private sector is led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, followed by Gambling and Book Publishing.

Strange looking men with big red noses are found hiding behind bushes and inside dustbins, most citizens in Eruopia are abject pyrophobes after extremely graphic pamphlets were mailed nationwide by the government, the newspaper industry is subsidised by the government in order to keep it afloat, and most of the nation's wealthy aristocrats are dentists. Crime -- especially youth-related -- is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Eruopia's national animal is the Dragon Steed, which is also the nation's favorite main course, its national religion is Veronaism, and its currency is the Eruopa.

Eruopia is ranked 1,314th in The East Pacific and 36,848th in the world for Largest Mining Sector, scoring 2 on the Blue Sky Asbestos Index.
