The Military junta of UnirState is a colossal, orderly nation, ruled by High Priest Jakob Jensen with an iron fist, and renowned for its ritual sacrifices, public floggings, and compulsory military service. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless, devout population of 5.519 billion Unirs are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."

The medium-sized, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government is primarily concerned with Defense, with Industry, Administration, and Education also on the agenda, while Welfare and International Aid receive no funds. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Unir city. The average income tax rate is 93.6%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Unir economy, worth a remarkable 2,270 trillion Septemns 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 black market in Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, and Uranium Mining. 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 411,458 Septemns, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.0 times as much as the poorest.

The Museum of Blackacrean War Crimes is located on "Blackacre Did Nothing Wrong Avenue", construction of the Really Big Hadron Collider is underway, children who can't memorize their multiplication tables are sent to the mines, and taxi drivers seem less xenophobic these days. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, despite the fact that it is difficult to make it through a day without breaking one of the country's many laws. UnirState's national animal is the 3 Headed lion, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its national religion is Norse Paganism.

UnirState is ranked 117,801st in the world and 3rd in Fullworthia for Most Stationary, with 311.1274744894 days.
