The Universal Republic of Edgelandia is a gargantuan, cultured nation, ruled by President Ned Edgewalker with an iron fist, and renowned for its state-planned economy, prohibition of alcohol, and smutty television. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless population of 21.165 billion Edgelandians 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 enormous, corrupt, well-organized government is primarily concerned with Defense, with Law & Order, Education, and Healthcare also on the agenda. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Westbrook. The average income tax rate is 99.3%.

The frighteningly efficient Edgelandian economy, worth a remarkable 4,500 trillion Edgebucks 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, highly specialized black market in Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, and Book Publishing. 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 212,623 Edgebucks, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Motorists must pay to enter inner-cities during peak hours, cat memes without alt text are now illegal, racial supremacists have a burning desire to deal with immigrants, and board shorts have replaced board rooms. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Edgelandia's national animal is the Grey Wolf, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is State-Mandated Atheism.

Edgelandia is ranked 72,267th in the world and 2nd in The Meme Must Go On for Most Stationary, with 653.80203295532 days.
