The Empire of Zwergbar is a huge, socially progressive nation, notable for its national health service, absence of drug laws, and spontaneously combusting cars. The hard-working, democratic population of 640 million Zwergbars live in a state of perpetual fear, as a complete breakdown of social order has led to the rise of order through biker gangs.

The tiny, liberal, pro-business, outspoken government prioritizes Healthcare, although Education, Administration, and Welfare are also considered important, while Spirituality and International Aid aren't funded at all. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Berlint. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 7.6%.

The strong Zwergbar economy, worth 31.6 trillion Marks a year, is led by the Soda Sales industry, with major contributions from Furniture Restoration, Information Technology, and Retail. Average income is 49,358 Marks, but there is an enormous disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 285,896 per year while the poor average 4,051, a ratio of 70.6 to 1.

Factories grind to a halt every time there is an election, government theft from poor artists to give to rich allies has been dubbed the "reverse Robin Hood" policy, Zwergbar has designated Berlint as its capital city, and hockey players who drop their gloves discard them on abandoned baseball mitts. Crime is a serious problem, probably because of the absence of a police force. Zwergbar's national animal is the Red-Eyed Wolf-Question Mark.

Zwergbar is ranked 111,469th in the world and 571st in Europeia for Most Scientifically Advanced, scoring 80.62 on the Kurzweil Singularity Index.
