The Republic of E pluribus unum is a gargantuan, cultured nation, ruled by Myrtle with an iron fist, and remarkable for its museums and concert halls, multi-spousal wedding ceremonies, and complete lack of prisons. The compassionate, cynical population of 11.525 billion pluribusans are ruled with an iron fist by the socialist government, which grants its people the freedom to do whatever they like so long as it doesn't involve getting richer than anybody else or challenging the government.

The enormous, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Healthcare, Industry, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Meis. The average income tax rate is 88.2%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient pluribusan economy, worth a remarkable 1,104 trillion Euros a year, is highly specialized and mostly made up of the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Arms Manufacturing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 95,823 Euros, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Captured Brasilistani POWs are staying in 5-star hotels, there has been a series of riots between local cannibals and health food advocates, the optimally efficient parking strategy for business commuters is referred to as the "traveling salesman problem", and bus ads propagandize causes ranging from sexual revolution to religious pogroms. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. E pluribus unum's national animal is the Painted Turtle, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans, and its national religion is Eastern Orthodox.

E pluribus unum is ranked 37,038^th in the world and 1,411^th in Lazarus for Largest Populations, with 11.5 billion capita.
