The Union of Technocratic Nations is a mammoth, efficient nation, ruled by Head Director I-292149-4312-4141 with an iron fist, and renowned for its otherworldly petting zoo, digital currency, and punitive income tax rates. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless population of 5.467 billion Terrans are ruled without fear or favor by a psychotic dictator, who outlaws just about everything and refers to the populace as "my little playthings."

The large, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of UTN-01. The average income tax rate is 83.0%.

The frighteningly efficient Terran economy, worth 950 trillion PaciBits a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Uranium Mining, and Beef-Based Agriculture. Black market activity is rampant. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 173,880 PaciBits, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 4.9 times as much as the poorest.

Flipping a coin to make a decision leads to a referral to Gambling Addiction Services, political shows are fit for purpose, graffiti artists spend lengthy periods of time in jail, and frat-house partying has become the national pastime. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Technocratic Nations's national animal is the panda, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is State-Enforced Nihilism.

Technocratic Nations is ranked 17,654th in the world and 1st in Negative for Largest Manufacturing Sector, scoring 34,282.93 on the Gooback-Jerbs Productivity Index.
