The Empire of Zwergbar is a huge, socially progressive nation, remarkable for its national health service, absence of drug laws, and spontaneously combusting cars. The hard-working, democratic population of 566 million Zwergbarians 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 tiny, liberal, pro-business, outspoken government prioritizes Healthcare, with Education, Administration, and Welfare also on the agenda, while Spirituality and International Aid are ignored. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 7.4%.

The strong Zwergbarian economy, worth 28.3 trillion Marks a year, is led by the Soda Sales industry, with major contributions from Furniture Restoration, Information Technology, and Retail. Average income is 50,055 Marks, but there is an enormous disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 289,932 per year while the poor average 4,109, a ratio of 70.6 to 1.

There's nothing more gay than bleeding for your nation, pharmacists increasingly claim they are morally obligated to take long lunches, major cities shut down as their local sports team takes to the field every day, and lavish state dinners in Zwergbar City are the state's leading budgetary expenditure. Crime is a serious problem, probably because of the absence of a police force. Zwergbar's national animal is the Red-Eyed Wolf-Question Mark.

Zwergbar is ranked 241,813th in the world and 1,057th in Europeia for Largest Automobile Manufacturing Sector, scoring -6.63 on the Henry Ford Productivity Index.
