The Dictatorship of The Binarian Empire is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by Commander Gruber with an iron fist, and notable for its multi-spousal wedding ceremonies, unlimited-speed roads, and punitive income tax rates. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless population of 11.011 billion Binarians are ruled by a mostly-benevolent dictator, who grants the populace the freedom to live their own lives but watches carefully for anyone to slip up.

The medium-sized, corrupt, well-organized government prioritizes Defense, with Law & Order, Industry, and Education also on the agenda. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of New Karakhan. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 67.6%.

The frighteningly efficient Binarian economy, worth a remarkable 1,599 trillion dollars a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Gambling, and Retail. Black market activity is rampant. Average income is an impressive 145,268 dollars, with the richest citizens earning 8.7 times as much as the poorest.

Airplane passengers have been known to stuff pillows in their jackets to get extra arm room, immigrants are told to pull themselves up by their worn-out budget bootstraps, no animal is considered endangered if there's another that looks kind of like it, and grannies get pulled over for knitting pullovers while driving. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. The Binarian Empire's national animal is the red cat, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its national religion is a major religion.

The Binarian Empire is ranked 175,120th in the world and 50th in MJT for Most Conservative, scoring 52.92 on the Bush-Santorum Dawning Terror Index.
