The tiny, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Welfare. The average income tax rate is 9.1%.

The Didde lardian economy, worth 19.2 trillion rupees a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is broadly diversified, is led by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Basket Weaving, Information Technology, and Retail. Average income is 64,497 rupees, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 4.5 times as much as the poorest.

Voting for pro-Bigtopian candidates is voluntary, the WhoTube comments section has gone strangely quiet, legislators must raise their hands if they want to speak, and lumberjacks only use certified eco-friendly chainsaws. Crime is well under control. Didde lard's national animal is the kiwi, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.
