The Psychotic Holy Amalgamation of Technocratic Pragmatists is a massive, efficient nation, ruled by Mr Kingy Man Hivemind Prototype Alpha with an even hand, and remarkable for its soft-spoken computers, pith helmet sales, and smutty television. The hard-nosed, humorless population of 2.1 billion Armed Naked Drones are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social and economic equality; they tend to view other countries as corrupted by the hollow pageantry of sham elections.

The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Education, Defense, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of The Mobile Subterranean Fortress. The average income tax rate is 79.6%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Upgraded economy, worth 397 trillion Harvested Organs and Brains 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, fairly diversified black market in Information Technology, Arms Manufacturing, Tourism, 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 impressive 189,390 Harvested Organs and Brains, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

High-tech infantry rifles automatically reload when the soldier shoots outside the screen of their helmet HUD, coconut-half banging former royals skip around the countryside seeking gullible peasants to rule, diplomatic missions typically end with a flurry of childish insults, accusations and phlegm, and kids these days know how to throw a proper punch. Crime is totally unknown. Technocratic Pragmatists's national animal is the Natural Unmodified Human-Cow Hybrid, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Auto-Apotheosis.

Technocratic Pragmatists is ranked 66,599th in the world and 50th in Kelios for Largest Insurance Industry, scoring 3,320.01 on the Risk Expulsion Effectiveness Rating.
