The Grand Duchy of Eurgenburg is a massive, environmentally stunning nation, notable for its national health service, ubiquitous missile silos, and free-roaming dinosaurs. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless population of 1.001 billion Eurgenburgians 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, moralistic, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Education. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 65.3%.

The frighteningly efficient Eurgenburgian economy, worth 118 trillion Rials a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Book Publishing, Tourism, and Information Technology. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 117,950 Rials, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 430,410 per year while the poor average 22,951, a ratio of 18.8 to 1.

Telling someone to 'break a leg' is considered a criminal inducement to self harm, jail house rock has been replaced with jail house golden oldies, any body part that can be cut off a person is no longer considered to be their property, and the government has started a campaign to crack down on road rage and encourage alternate means of commuting. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Eurgenburg's national animal is the Lion, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Eurgenburg is ranked 251,950^th in the world and 5,702^nd in The North Pacific for Most Cultured, scoring 62 on the Snufflebottom-Wiggendum Pentatonic Scale.
