The Puppet State of Puppetalia is a titanic, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Gonzo the Great with an even hand, and remarkable for its rum-swilling pirates, frequent executions, and daily referendums. The compassionate, democratic, devout population of 14.023 billion puppets enjoy extensive civil freedoms, particularly in social issues, while business tends to be more regulated.

The large, liberal government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Muppet-overtaken-Manhattan. The average income tax rate is 84.1%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient puppet economy, worth a remarkable 2,119 trillion cardboard boxes a year, is quite specialized and dominated by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing, Retail, and Gambling. Black market activity is rampant. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 151,117 cardboard boxes, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The national arsenal is full of sound and fury signifying nothing, cane fights are a common sight in nursing homes, you can bet your bottom dollar that gambling will cost you an arm and a leg, and athletes are renowned for being the best at maths. Crime is well under control. Puppetalia's national animal is the fraggle, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Oneness of The Toymaker.

Puppetalia is ranked 203,306^th in the world and 39^th in Libertarian Socialist Confederation for Least Corrupt Governments, with 92.21 percentage of bribes refused.
