The Financial Asset of A Share of the Maersk AS is a colossal, cultured nation, ruled by Bodil Jørgensen with a fair hand, and renowned for its avant-garde cinema, free-roaming dinosaurs, and sprawling nuclear power plants. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic population of 5.408 billion Danishes enjoy a sensible mix of personal and economic freedoms, while the political process is open and the people's right to vote held sacrosanct.

The medium-sized, corrupt, outspoken government prioritizes Education, with Administration, Industry, and Defense also on the agenda, while Spirituality and Law & Order are ignored. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Copenhagen. The average income tax rate is 95.7%.

The frighteningly efficient Share of the Maersk ASian economy, worth a remarkable 2,584 trillion Danish Kroner a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is an enormous, deeply entrenched, broadly diversified black market in Information Technology, Book Publishing, Arms Manufacturing, and Retail. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is an amazing 477,984 Danish Kroner, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.9 times as much as the poorest.

Government officials frequently cut taxes as a distraction from antics with their secretaries, the nation is in perpetual campaign mode, the mood of raunchy movies is often ruined by the sound of babies crying, and the nation is known abroad mostly for its Parliamentary antics. Crime, especially youth-related, is a serious problem, perhaps because of the country's complete lack of prisons. A Share of the Maersk AS's national animal is the Mermaid, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to heavy metals seepage into national waterways, and its national religion is Beölial - Lord of Corruption.

A Share of the Maersk AS is ranked 261,090th in the world and 5th in The Financial District of New York for Most Conservative, scoring 35.75 on the Bush-Santorum Dawning Terror Index.
