The Federal Republic of Pizza Union is a titanic, efficient nation, ruled by Mister Pizza with a fair hand, and remarkable for its burgeoning falcon population. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic population of 24.428 billion Pizzians enjoy frequent elections, which are uniformly corrupted by big-spending corporations buying politicians who best suit their interests.

The relatively small, moralistic, pro-business government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Healthcare, and Welfare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Pisa. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 14.8%.

The very strong Pizza Unionian economy, worth a remarkable 1,277 trillion Euros a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Beef-Based Agriculture, Woodchip Exports, and Door-to-door Insurance Sales. Average income is 52,295 Euros, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 159,750 per year while the poor average 13,268, a ratio of 12.0 to 1.

Pizzism has been named as Pizza Union's national religion, Pizza Union has designated Pisa as its capital city, and Mister Pizza has just been declared ruler of Pizza Union in an international press conference. Crime is moderate, with the police force struggling against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. Pizza Union's national animal is the falcon, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Pizzism.

Pizza Union is ranked 215,755^th in the world and 1^st in Star Ocean for Smartest Citizens, with 23.58 quips per hour.
