The Absolute Dictatorship of Engala is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by Matt with an iron fist, and notable for its keen interest in outer space, pith helmet sales, and free-roaming dinosaurs. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless, devout population of 42.353 billion Engalans 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 large, corrupt, well-organized government is primarily concerned with Defense, with Education, Healthcare, and Industry also on the agenda, while International Aid isn't funded at all. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Hebeglebegurk. The average income tax rate is 98.9%.

The frighteningly efficient Engalan economy, worth an astonishing 17,918 trillion Spoons a year, is fairly diversified and mostly comprised of black market activity, especially in Arms Manufacturing, Uranium Mining, Information Technology, and Woodchip Exports. Average income is an amazing 423,071 Spoons, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.4 times as much as the poorest.

Watching shooting stars is Engalans' number two favorite pastime, weather forecasts regularly cover meteor showers, having only one wallet stolen in a day is considered a cause for celebration, and private digital records now come with a convenient "download" button. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Engala's national animal is the Sheep, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Mattism.

Engala is ranked 2,321st in the world and 1st in Communists United for Largest Manufacturing Sector, scoring 84,598.88 on the Gooback-Jerbs Productivity Index.
