The Magical Kingdom of Eternal Purgatory is a titanic, efficient nation, ruled by Yodle with an even hand, and notable for its enslaved workforce, infamous sell-swords, and absence of drug laws. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic, humorless, devout population of 22.897 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 effectively ruled by the Department of Industry, although Spirituality is also considered important, while Welfare and Environment aren't funded at all. 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 6,020 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 262,935 Gold Bars, but there is a vast disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 2,457,138 per year while the poor average 2,436, a ratio of 1,008 to 1.

Lion-reed-vulture-hand-reed-mouth is how Yodle is spelt now, even religious militants can be swayed by the power of #love, "Darwin's Disease" is a growing cause of death, and tradesmen will knock 10% off their fees if customers pay cash. Crime, especially youth-related, is so common that it is unusual to encounter someone following the law, 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.

Eternal Purgatory is ranked 319,965^th in the world and 53^rd in Disney World for Most Eco-Friendly Governments, scoring -45.28 on the Dolphin Recycling Awareness Index.
