The Destructive Force of Alcoholism is a titanic, efficient nation, ruled by Johnnie Walker with an iron fist, and notable for its frequent executions, ubiquitous missile silos, and national health service. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless, devout population of 13.973 billion Jakeys are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."

The large, corrupt, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Industry, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Cirrhosisville. The average income tax rate is 82.3%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Alcoholismian economy, worth a remarkable 2,535 trillion Bottles a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is an enormous, deeply entrenched, fairly diversified black market in Information Technology, Retail, Woodchip Exports, and Arms Manufacturing. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is an impressive 181,458 Bottles, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.7 times as much as the poorest.

It is illegal for a parent to tell a child to stop eating their boogers, the "Dreadnowt" is the pride and joy of the Alcoholismian Navy, students spend the school year learning how great the education system is, and sprinters achieve their personal bests only when the Olympic Team recruiters come calling. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Alcoholism's national animal is the Alkie and its national religion is the Cult of Ethanol.

Alcoholism is ranked 280,097^th in the world and 63^rd in The Card Mine for Largest Insurance Industry, scoring -9.17 on the Risk Expulsion Effectiveness Rating.
