The Drunken Tyranny of Drunkerland is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by Egglin Gaylord with an iron fist, and remarkable for its closed borders, ritual sacrifices, and avant-garde cinema. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless, devout population of 11.809 billion Bums 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 relatively small, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Spirituality. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Bum City. The average income tax rate is 4.3%, but much higher for the wealthy.
The powerhouse Drunkerlandian economy, worth a remarkable 2,709 trillion Bird Droppings 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 large, well-organized, quite specialized black market in Arms Manufacturing, Uranium Mining, Basket Weaving, and Furniture Restoration. 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 229,474 Bird Droppings, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.0 times as much as the poorest.
Citizens are told that foreigners are hungry ghosts who eat the flesh of the overly curious, tie-dye has been outlawed for being 'too occult', it is illegal to carry an umbrella when the official weather forecast predicts a sunny day, and the church encourages double-dipping. Crime is pervasive, perhaps because of the country's complete lack of prisons. Drunkerland's national animal is the Drunk Pig, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its national religion is Communism.
Drunkerland is ranked 292,105th in the world and 166th in The Glorious Nations of Iwaku for Lowest Crime Rates, with 10.72 law-abiding acts per hour.
