The Holy Empire of Driponia is a massive, efficient nation, ruled by Big Joe with an iron fist, and renowned for its multi-spousal wedding ceremonies, sprawling nuclear power plants, and irreverence towards religion. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical population of 2.596 billion Driponians are ruled by a mostly-benevolent dictator, who grants the populace the freedom to live their own lives but watches carefully for anyone to slip up.

The medium-sized, corrupt, well-organized government is primarily concerned with Defense, with Industry, Education, and Administration also on the agenda, while International Aid isn't funded at all. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Your Mom's House. The average income tax rate is 43.9%.

The frighteningly efficient Driponian economy, worth 411 trillion 19 dollar Fortnite cards a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Retail, and Uranium Mining. Black market activity is rampant. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an impressive 158,665 19 dollar Fortnite cards, with the richest citizens earning 5.4 times as much as the poorest.

The carbon footprint falls along with the human footprint during war, Big Joe often plays real life games of Tower Defense against hordes of angry villagers, card collectors duel to the death, and the health budget has been diverted into prolonging Big Joe's life. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Driponia's national animal is the Dragon, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to toxic air pollution.

Driponia is ranked 52,892^nd in the world and 2,866^th in Lazarus for Most Cultured, scoring 71 on the Snufflebottom-Wiggendum Pentatonic Scale.
