The Potato-Pope of United Desri is a massive, socially progressive nation, ruled by Emperor Spud with a fair hand, and notable for its deadly medical pandemics, infamous sell-swords, and absence of drug laws. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic, cheerful, devout population of 3.239 billion Desriese live in a state of perpetual fear, as a complete breakdown of social order has led to the rise of order through biker gangs.

The relatively small, corrupt, liberal, pro-business, outspoken government prioritizes Industry, although Defense, Administration, and Education are also considered important, while Law & Order and International Aid receive no funds. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Spud Central. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 9.5%.

The frighteningly efficient Desriese economy, worth 583 trillion Little Debbie Mini Donuts a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Retail industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Soda Sales, and Gambling. Black market activity is notable. Average income is an impressive 179,999 Little Debbie Mini Donuts, but there is an enormous disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 1,096,717 per year while the poor average 13,074, a ratio of 83.9 to 1.

Truancy levels are on the rise ever since school registers were banned, after every storm there's an expensive government-funded rainbow, bins outnumber trees in city parks, and child labor has been outlawed. Crime, especially youth-related, is all-pervasive, perhaps because of the country's complete lack of prisons. United Desri's national animal is the Potato, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is The Eternal Spud.

United Desri is ranked 119,507th in the world and 2nd in Ultimate Potato Republic for Most Stationary, with 301.16676558648 days.
