The Borderlands of UNITYUNITYUNITY is a huge, environmentally stunning nation, renowned for its unlimited-speed roads, compulsory vegetarianism, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate, cynical, devout population of 751 million unitomultiplicities are ruled with an iron fist by the socialist government, which grants its people the freedom to do whatever they like so long as it doesn't involve getting richer than anybody else or challenging the government.

The enormous, liberal, socially-minded, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Education, Welfare, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of EARTHEARTHEARTH. The average income tax rate is 71.9%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The sizeable but sluggish UNITYUNITYUNITYian economy, worth 22.3 trillion axioms 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 a slick, highly efficient, quite specialized black market in Information Technology, Woodchip Exports, Uranium Mining, 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 29,674 axioms, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Nobody is quite sure what goes into factory nutrient blocks, government adverts say that twelve lashes a day keeps divine wrath at bay, a recent political speech drew the ire of nerds everywhere after the speaker claimed that Darth Vader was Harry Potter's father, and rare art has become a significant factor in negotiating all foreign trade agreements. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. UNITYUNITYUNITY's national animal is the human, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

UNITYUNITYUNITY is ranked 153,149th in the world and 187th in The Communist Bloc for Largest Insurance Industry, scoring 650.83 on the Risk Expulsion Effectiveness Rating.
