The Federal Republic of Technocratic-european Countries is a titanic, socially progressive nation, ruled by Nathan Aurel with a fair hand, and remarkable for its museums and concert halls, ubiquitous missile silos, and daily referendums. The compassionate, democratic population of 13.027 billion europeans enjoy a sensible mix of personal and economic freedoms, while the political process is open and the people's right to vote held sacrosanct.

The enormous government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Industry, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Europia. The income tax rate is 100.0%.

The frighteningly efficient european economy, worth a remarkable 2,995 trillion Euros a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is quite specialized, is led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Retail, and Book Publishing. Average income is an amazing 229,982 Euros, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Finders keepers is the law of the land, Technocratic-european Countries is notorious for its citizens' infidelity, evasive politicians don't fail to strongly commit to not committing to a course of non-inaction, and scientists pester asteroids with probes until they go away. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Technocratic-european Countries's national animal is the Eagle, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Secularism.

Technocratic-european Countries is ranked 44,255^th in the world and 470^th in The North Pacific for Largest Populations, with 13.0 billion capita.
