The Holy Empire of The union I is a small, efficient nation, notable for its ubiquitous missile silos, irreverence towards religion, and suspicion of poets. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical population of 32 million The unions are rabid consumers, partly through choice and partly because the government tells them to and dissenters tend to vanish from their homes at night.

The tiny, pro-business, well-organized government prioritizes Defense, although Law & Order, Industry, and Education are also considered important, while Spirituality and International Aid aren't funded at all. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 7.3%.

The powerhouse union Iian economy, worth 2.89 trillion USDS a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Retail, and Uranium Mining. Average income is 90,256 USDS, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 295,369 per year while the poor average 20,719, a ratio of 14.3 to 1.

The tinfoil-hat crowd also recommend tinfoil wallets, claiming that "my cousin said it was legal" is a common courtroom defense, doctors prescribe medicines but they rarely dispense hope or compassion, and surveys show 100% of The unions are never, ever tired. Crime, especially youth-related, is relatively low. The union I's national animal is the eagle, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to toxic air pollution.

The union I is ranked 297,306^th in the world and 3^rd in New Germanic Empire for Most Eco-Friendly Governments, scoring -4.47 on the Dolphin Recycling Awareness Index.
