The Mad Scientist of Dr Octopus is a gargantuan, pleasant nation, renowned for its burgeoning Octopus population. The quiet, industrious population of 27.016 billion Dr Octopusians have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Industry, Education, and Welfare. The average income tax rate is 24.3%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The Dr Octopusian economy, worth 733 trillion Dollars a year, is quite specialized and led by the Soda Sales industry, with major contributions from Automobile Manufacturing, Information Technology, and Book Publishing. Black market activity is notable. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 27,153 Dollars, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.6 times as much as the poorest.

Voting is voluntary, the latest Harry Potter book is a bestseller, punitive tariffs protect local industry, and gambling is outlawed. Crime is moderate. Dr Octopus's national animal is the Octopus.

Dr Octopus is ranked 97,049^th in the world and 6^th in Blackstar for Most Cultured, scoring 66 on the Snufflebottom-Wiggendum Pentatonic Scale.
