The Kingdom of Boods is a gargantuan, safe nation, ruled by Mr Boods with an iron fist, and notable for its parental licensing program, prohibition of alcohol, and keen interest in outer space. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless population of 15.197 billion Boodlets are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."
The medium-sized, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Boods City. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 77.3%.
The all-consuming Boodsian economy, worth a remarkable 2,416 trillion boods a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Uranium Mining, Door-to-door Insurance Sales, and Automobile Manufacturing. Average income is an impressive 159,029 boods, with the richest citizens earning 9.7 times as much as the poorest.
Suppression of pro-democracy protests is a daily occurrence, forecasts predict rains of loose lead and mortar shells for the next six weeks, the nation's soldiers often believe they're in the Air Force, and most people think algebra is something a mermaid wears. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force. Boods's national animal is the boods, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.
Boods is ranked 216,785th in the world and 6,304th in Osiris for Most Income Equality, scoring 10.27 on the Marx-Engels Emancipation Scale.
