The Victorious Dictator of Nationalist Gold Union is a gargantuan, orderly nation, ruled by President Chief P Resident with an iron fist, and remarkable for its keen interest in outer space, ubiquitous missile silos, and pith helmet sales. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless population of 18.407 billion Unionistionianis 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 medium-sized, corrupt, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Nationalist Gold Unionopolis. The average income tax rate is 63.0%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Unionistioniani economy, worth a remarkable 5,099 trillion telegram stamps a year, is broadly diversified and mostly comprised of black market activity, especially in Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, Retail, and Book Publishing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an amazing 277,047 telegram stamps, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.7 times as much as the poorest.

Hypochondriacs demand treatment for genetic disorders they don't have, hiding wrinkles with make-up is illegal, panels from bankrupt rooftop solar companies are used as props for sci-fi B-movies, and older citizens lament over the loss of law and order. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Nationalist Gold Union's national animal is the eagle, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Unionistionianism.

Nationalist Gold Union is ranked 7,957th in the world and 3rd in Testregionia for Most Scientifically Advanced, scoring 455.54 on the Kurzweil Singularity Index.
