The Potato-Pope of United Desri is a massive, efficient nation, ruled by Emperor Spud with a fair hand, and notable for its rum-swilling pirates, unlimited-speed roads, and flagrant waste-dumping. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic, cheerful, devout population of 4.69 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 Environment receive no funds. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Spud Central. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 9.3%.

The frighteningly efficient Desriese economy, worth 860 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 183,522 Little Debbie Mini Donuts, but there is an enormous disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 1,116,153 per year while the poor average 13,391, a ratio of 83.3 to 1.

There's no such thing as bad publicity, truancy is as easy as clicking a camera icon, a girl's success in life is often linked to her performance in beauty pageants, and young girls aren't having a ball but they are enjoying themselves. 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 40,498th in the world and 4th in Ultimate Potato Republic for Most Advanced Defense Forces, scoring 5,917.55 on the Total War Preparedness Rating.
