The Federation of The African Union AU is a colossal, cultured nation, notable for its pith helmet sales, sprawling nuclear power plants, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate, devout population of 5.484 billion African Union AUians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The enormous government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Healthcare, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Nyumbayetu. The average income tax rate is 88.4%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient African Union AUian economy, worth 650 trillion African Dinars a year, is quite specialized and led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Arms Manufacturing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 118,635 African Dinars, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Being Leader has been voted one of the top ten most dangerous jobs, it is rumoured that Leader uses a magic 8-ball to make policy decisions, citizens are bleary-eyed after staying up all night with a good book (The African Union AU has found 4 easter eggs), and science centers and state of the art laboratories are ubiquitous. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. The African Union AU's national animal is the African Elephant, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

The African Union AU is ranked 258,331^st in the world and 10,054^th in Balder for Highest Disposable Incomes, with 13,761.68 Standard Monetary Units.
