The Empire of Onderkelkia is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by Hair Broom with an iron fist, and renowned for its deadly medical pandemics, keen interest in outer space, and strictly enforced bedtime. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless, devout population of 37.74 billion Onderkelkians are ruled with an iron fist by the corrupt, dictatorship government, which oppresses anyone who isn't on the board of a Fortune 500 company. Large corporations tend to be above the law, and use their financial clout to gain ever-increasing government benefits at the expense of the poor and unemployed.

The minute, corrupt, moralistic, pro-business, well-organized government, or what there is of one, prioritizes Defense, although Law & Order is also considered important, while Environment and Social Policy are ignored. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Inginase. Income tax is unheard of.

The frighteningly efficient Onderkelkian economy, worth an astonishing 14,000 trillion Sovereigns a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is broadly diversified and led by the Retail industry, with major contributions from Gambling, Uranium Mining, and Arms Manufacturing. Average income is an amazing 370,968 Sovereigns, but there is a large disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 1,802,743 per year while the poor average 44,089, a ratio of 40.9 to 1.

Fifty years of pension funds can disappear in half a second, twins move across the country to avoid being accused of the other's crimes, the teaching of evolution has been banned, and royals are always ready with their diamond-encrusted toilet plungers in case a royal flush doesn't work. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, despite the fact that it is difficult to make it through a day without breaking one of the country's many laws. Onderkelkia's national animal is the Golden Eagle, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is The Worship of Zeus and Hades.

Onderkelkia is ranked 1,903rd in the world and 3rd in The Land of Kings and Emperors for Most Stationary, with 4,096.6640448 days.
