The Magical Kingdom of Eternal Purgatory is a gargantuan, socially progressive nation, ruled by Yodle with an even hand, and renowned for its rum-swilling pirates, deadly medical pandemics, and infamous sell-swords. The hard-nosed, hard-working, humorless, devout population of 17.759 billion Purgatoryians are either ruled by a sleek, efficient government or a conglomerate of multinational corporations; it's difficult to tell which.

The minute, corrupt, pro-business government, or what there is of one, is solely concerned with Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Purgatory. Income tax is unheard of.

The frighteningly efficient Eternal Purgatoryian economy, worth a remarkable 4,205 trillion Gold Bars a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is broadly diversified and led by the Retail industry, with major contributions from Gambling, Soda Sales, and Uranium Mining. Average income is an amazing 236,802 Gold Bars, but there is a vast disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 2,211,272 per year while the poor average 2,215, a ratio of 997 to 1.

You're only as old as you feel, Yodle will only ring up foreign leaders if they agree to reverse the charges, you can bet your bottom dollar that gambling will cost you an arm and a leg, and the government is a law unto itself. Crime, especially youth-related, is all-pervasive, perhaps because of the country's complete lack of prisons. Eternal Purgatory's national animal is the Cow, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Yodlism.
