The Potato-Pope of United Desri is a mammoth, efficient nation, ruled by Emperor Spud with a fair hand, and renowned for its ubiquitous missile silos, flagrant waste-dumping, and free-roaming dinosaurs. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic, cheerful, devout population of 8.428 billion Desrics live in a state of perpetual fear, as a complete breakdown of social order has led to the rise of order through biker gangs.
