“Let's Take It To The Stage!”

The Fascist Empire of Funkaholics is a huge, economically powerful nation, ruled by Heighpriest George Clinton with an iron fist, and remarkable for its sprawling nuclear power plants. Its hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical population of 888 million are rabid consumers, partly through choice and partly because the government tells them to and dissenters tend to vanish from their homes at night.

The tiny, corrupt, pro-business government concentrates mainly on Law & Order, although Defence and the Environment are secondary priorities. It meets every day to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Funkaholics City. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 5%. A robust private sector is dominated by the Tourism industry.

There's a shortage of swinging hot spots as land development grinds to a halt, criminals are executed and their property seized, public loudspeakers constantly tell citizens they are "happy people", and all guns must be registered. Crime -- especially youth-related -- is pervasive. Funkaholics's national animal is the freakoftheweek, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its currency is the Loose Booty.

Funkaholics is ranked 191st in the region and 8,507th in the world for Largest Furniture Restoration Industry.
