The Federation of Engine Unions is a very large, efficient nation, notable for its smutty television, irreverence towards religion, and suspicion of poets. The hard-nosed, hard-working population of 255 million Engine Unionists are either ruled by a sleek, efficient government or a conglomerate of multinational corporations; it's difficult to tell which.

The tiny, pro-business government is primarily concerned with Industry, with Education, Law & Order, and Administration also on the agenda, while International Aid and Environment receive no funds. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Union Street. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 5.9%.

The frighteningly efficient Engine Unionist economy, worth 27.9 trillion Union State Dollars a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is broadly diversified and led by the Retail industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Soda Sales, and Pizza Delivery. Average income is an impressive 109,396 Union State Dollars, but there is an enormous disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 569,323 per year while the poor average 11,347, a ratio of 50.2 to 1.

Coffee-addicted citizens look forward to baristas getting their name wrong at local coffee shops, stealing from a clothesline is a serious offence, Mr Happy's Funland has just been named Engine Unions's new capital, and cash-strapped Engine Unionists scour their bodies for fortuitous zits. Crime, especially youth-related, is a major problem, with the police force struggling against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. Engine Unions's national animal is the beaver, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Engine Unions is ranked 3,088^th in the world and 93^rd in The North Pacific for Largest Pizza Delivery Sector, scoring 7,386.79 on the Pepperoni Propulsion Productivity Index.
