The Trans-Universal Empire of The African Emirates is a gargantuan, cultured nation, ruled by Ernest with a fair hand, and notable for its pith helmet sales, rampant corporate plagiarism, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, democratic population of 14.379 billion Emiratians love a good election, and the government gives them plenty of them. Universities tend to be full of students debating the merits of various civil and political rights, while businesses are tightly regulated and the wealthy viewed with suspicion.

The large, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Emiratia-3. The income tax rate is 100%.

The frighteningly efficient Emiratian economy, worth a remarkable 4,765 trillion Qis a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is highly specialized, is mostly made up of the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism and Arms Manufacturing. Average income is an amazing 331,444 Qis, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

A sledgehammer and a spray can are seen as the default tools of political debate, the military maintains a fierce arsenal of 'Cure Missiles', foreign governments are threatened if they so much as mention the word "election", and wishing you had children is considered a sign of child abuse. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. The African Emirates's national animal is the Emiratian Elephant, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Atheism.

The African Emirates is ranked 289,373^rd in the world and 834^th in 10000 Islands for Largest Gambling Industry, scoring -24.73 on the Kelly Criterion Productivity Index.
