The Dominion of Flurp Flurp Land is a colossal, efficient nation, ruled by The Flurpus Supreme with an iron fist, and remarkable for its state-planned economy, ritual sacrifices, and punitive income tax rates. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless, devout population of 7.343 billion Flurp Flurp Landians are ruled without fear or favor by a psychotic dictator, who outlaws just about everything and refers to the populace as "my little playthings."

The large, corrupt, moralistic, socially-minded, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Flurp Flurp-atia. The average income tax rate is 79.0%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The powerhouse Flurp Flurp Landian economy, worth a remarkable 1,024 trillion Hopes and Dreams a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is a large, well-organized black market in Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, Uranium Mining, and Woodchip Exports. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is an impressive 139,472 Hopes and Dreams, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.3 times as much as the poorest.

Foreign governments regularly accuse the Flurp Flurp Landian military of war crimes, government bureaucrats shut down teenage yard-raking businesses for being counter-revolutionary, industry leaders commend the government for enacting an emissions reduction strategy that reduces no Flurp Flurp Landian emissions at all, and homesickness is thought to be a waterborne illness. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Flurp Flurp Land's national animal is the Tardigrade, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its national religion is The Cult Of The Purple Demon Sludges.

Flurp Flurp Land is ranked 50,996th in the world and 109th in Confederation of Corrupt Dictators for Most Subsidized Industry, scoring 3,846.16 on the Gilded Widget Scale.
