The Grand Duchy of Eurgenburg is a massive, efficient nation, renowned for its free-roaming dinosaurs, aversion to nipples, and pith helmet sales. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless population of 1.124 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. The average income tax rate is 67.8%.

The frighteningly efficient Eurgenburgian economy, worth 130 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 116,128 Rials, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.3 times as much as the poorest.

Space shuttles regularly launch rubbish into space, the sanitised and dull music festivals of Eurgenburg are famed for their reasonable volume levels, school children asked "what is two times two?" are likely to form a symposium to discuss how different answers make them feel, and many Eurgenburgians are their brothers' keepers. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very 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 35,020th in the world and 1,245th in The North Pacific for Most Scientifically Advanced, scoring 196.94 on the Kurzweil Singularity Index.
