The Republic of Unikon is a gargantuan, cultured nation, ruled by Hammerhead with an even hand, and notable for its museums and concert halls, multi-spousal wedding ceremonies, and absence of drug laws. The hard-nosed, hard-working, humorless population of 32.923 billion Unikonians enjoy some of the most opulent lifestyles in the region, unless they are unemployed or working-class, in which case they are variously starving to death or crippled by easily preventable diseases.

The tiny, corrupt government prioritizes Defense, with Education, Industry, and Administration also on the agenda, while Spirituality and Social Policy are ignored. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Unikon City. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 1.1%.

The frighteningly efficient Unikonian economy, worth an astonishing 10,926 trillion dollars a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Retail, and Uranium Mining. Black market activity is notable. Average income is an amazing 331,876 dollars, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 1,134,711 per year while the poor average 71,365, a ratio of 15.9 to 1.

There have been sightings of people walking around dressed in nothing but leopard-skin g-strings for 'religious reasons', many politicians are having to do a hard day's work for the first time in their careers, the nation's smallest Lionball teams trade draft picks for a free lunch, and the leading national news source is 'my cousin Billy-Bob on MyFace'. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. Unikon's national animal is the Lion, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is None.

Unikon is ranked 14,651^st in the world and 4^th in Absolution for Largest Black Market, with 293 trillion Standard Monetary Units.
