The Republic of The Boblandian People is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by Charles Gettler with an even hand, and notable for its keen interest in outer space, complete lack of prisons, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, democratic, humorless population of 13.245 billion Boblandians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The enormous, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Defense. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Boblandia. The average income tax rate is 99.3%.

The frighteningly efficient Boblandian economy, worth a remarkable 3,009 trillion Catans a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is quite specialized, is mostly made up of the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Arms Manufacturing and Book Publishing. Average income is an amazing 227,215 Catans, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Even secular Boblandians are shouting "Blessed are the cheesemakers!", political dissidents are cut off from essential services, the dessert 'Death by Chocolate' isn't the most lethal dish on the menu, and thousands of former pirates can be found peddling knockoff products in flea markets. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. The Boblandian People's national animal is the Snake, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

The Boblandian People is ranked 2,159^th in the world and 1^st in Amrak for Lowest Crime Rates, with 141.98 law-abiding acts per hour.
