The Commonwealth of Bobadyk is a massive, efficient nation, ruled by Sotha Sil with an iron fist, and renowned for its ban on automobiles, compulsory military service, and free-roaming dinosaurs. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless population of 3.222 billion Bobadykians 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, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Education, Industry, and Environment. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Bodabykinn I. The average income tax rate is 66.2%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Bobadykian economy, worth 551 trillion Dollars a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Arms Manufacturing, and Book Publishing. Black market activity is rampant. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 171,212 Dollars, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.3 times as much as the poorest.

Sotha Sil will only ring up foreign leaders if they agree to reverse the charges, the hit new medical TV show "Home" prominently features the brand of painkiller the lead doctor is addicted to, citizens are arrested for naturally producing proteins, and nighttime sightings of raccoons sporting Circle-A patches and bandanna masks are on the rise. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Bobadyk's national animal is the Tiger, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Bobadyk is ranked 15,678^th in the world and 210^th in The East Pacific for Most Corrupt Governments, with 118.45 kickbacks per hour.
