The Imperial Federation of Improper Classifications is a massive, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Emperor Michael II with an iron fist, and renowned for its ban on automobiles, ubiquitous missile silos, and frequent executions. The hard-nosed, cynical population of 4.417 billion Classifiers are ruled without fear or favor by a psychotic dictator, who outlaws just about everything and refers to the populace as "my little playthings."

The large, 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 New Thunder City. The average income tax rate is 97.2%.

The frighteningly efficient Classified economy, worth a remarkable 1,363 trillion Classifications Credits 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, fairly diversified black market in Information Technology, Arms Manufacturing, Cheese Exports, and Retail. 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 amazing 308,616 Classifications Credits, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Couples wishing to marry spend months at the circus trying to learn acrobatics, consumption of cat memes has skyrocketed, war criminals are given full state funerals, and a new apartment is worth a thousand betrayals. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Improper Classifications's national animal is the Wolf, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Faith of the Golden Mile.

Improper Classifications is ranked 1,654^th in the world and 2^nd in The Galactics Union for Most Subsidized Industry, scoring 16,482.47 on the Gilded Widget Scale.
