The Oppressed Peoples of Lower Slobbovia is a colossal, orderly nation, ruled by Comrade Nogoodnik with an iron fist, and notable for its punitive income tax rates, restrictive gun laws, and stringent health and safety legislation. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless population of 7.424 billion Lower Slobbovians 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 large, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Slivovitz. The average income tax rate is 99.2%.

The frighteningly efficient Lower Slobbovian economy, worth a remarkable 1,995 trillion Plastic Rasbuckniks a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is fairly diversified, is led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Tourism, and Beef-Based Agriculture. Average income is an amazing 268,757 Plastic Rasbuckniks, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.3 times as much as the poorest.

Policemen regularly conduct midnight raids on closed donut shops to 'collect evidence', revolutionaries only deal in CyanCatCoin, couch potatoes are considered to be model citizens, and urban graffiti is hand-calligraphed in perfectly kerned elegant fonts. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Lower Slobbovia's national animal is the Russian Bear, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Equity Amongst the Masses.

Lower Slobbovia is ranked 73,271st in the world and 9th in The Embassy for Largest Populations, with 7.42 billion capita.
