United Nation of Airheads

The Colony of United Nation of Airheads is a gargantuan, orderly nation, remarkable for its barren, inhospitable landscape, anti-smoking policies, and zero percent divorce rate. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, devout population of 10.492 billion Airheads are ruled by a mostly-benevolent dictator, who grants the populace the freedom to live their own lives but watches carefully for anyone to slip up.

The tiny, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Healthcare, and Administration. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 5.7%.

The strong United Nation of Airheadsian economy, worth 650 trillion Discs a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is fairly diversified and led by the Gambling industry, with significant contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Retail, and Cheese Exports. Average income is 61,969 Discs, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 177,930 per year while the poor average 17,162, a ratio of 10.4 to 1.

Waste is frequently shipped to other countries, traumatised refugees have a full bedpan shoved into their hands along with their immigration papers, engine room hooch is the drink of choice among the nation's navy, and kids are told they can be whoever they want to be when they grow up. Crime is a serious problem. United Nation of Airheads's national animal is the Cheetah, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

United Nation of Airheads is ranked 97,106th in the world and 1,103rd in Osiris for Most Stationary, with 455.684083362 days.
