The Kingdom of Depressing Feelings is a gargantuan, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Piper Anne Gonzales with an even hand, and remarkable for its museums and concert halls, smutty television, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, democratic population of 10.598 billion Depressing Feelingsians enjoy extensive civil rights and enjoy a level of social equality free from the usual accompanying government corruption.

The enormous government juggles the competing demands of Healthcare, Administration, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Anxiety Ville. The average income tax rate is 82.5%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Depressing Feelingsian economy, worth a remarkable 1,081 trillion Curries a year, is quite specialized and led by the Book Publishing industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Information Technology, and Basket Weaving. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 102,077 Curries, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Depressing Feelingsians are regularly fired for looking at MyFace during their lunch breaks, orphans would rather live their life of luxury than be adopted by prospective parents, cyber-crime and tin-foil hat sales are both increasing at record rates, and students are known to arrive at school in their pyjamas. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Depressing Feelings's national animal is the Puppy-Monkey-Baby, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is ADHDism.

Depressing Feelings is ranked 8,420^th in the world and 470^th in Balder for Most Beautiful Environments, with 1,765.1 pounds of wildlife per square mile.
