The Potato-Pope of United Desri is a mammoth, cultured nation, ruled by Emperor Spud with a fair hand, and remarkable for its ubiquitous missile silos, complete lack of prisons, and absence of drug laws. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic, cheerful, devout population of 8.403 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.

The tiny, corrupt, liberal, pro-business, outspoken government is primarily concerned with Industry, with Defense, Administration, and Education also on the agenda, while Law & Order and Environment receive no funds. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Spudias. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 6.9%.

The frighteningly efficient Desriese economy, worth a remarkable 1,636 trillion Little Debbie Mini Donuts a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Retail industry, with significant contributions from Soda Sales, Arms Manufacturing, and Gambling. Black market activity is notable. Average income is an impressive 194,741 Little Debbie Mini Donuts, but there is a large disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 944,072 per year while the poor average 23,252, a ratio of 40.6 to 1.

Young and brooding teens are welcomed with open arms to the Dogwarts School of Strangeness and Sorcery, immigrants complain that natives keep coming over and taking their jobs, the word "sexagenarian" has taken on a whole new meaning, and new urban roads are threatening city parks. Crime, especially youth-related, is all-pervasive, perhaps because of the country's complete lack of prisons. United Desri's national animal is the Potato, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its national religion is The Eternal Spud.

United Desri is ranked 183,818th in the world and 3rd in Ultimate Potato Republic for Most Developed, scoring 53.32 on the Human Development Index.
