The Massiv military powrhous of Platypustopia is a massive, orderly nation, ruled by A platypus with an iron fist, and renowned for its prohibition of alcohol, irreverence towards religion, and punitive income tax rates. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless population of 1.184 billion Platypustopians are ruled with an iron fist by the corrupt, dictatorship government, which oppresses anyone who isn't on the board of a Fortune 500 company. Large corporations tend to be above the law, and use their financial clout to gain ever-increasing government benefits at the expense of the poor and unemployed.

The medium-sized, corrupt, moralistic, 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 Platypus town. The average income tax rate is 67.7%.

The frighteningly efficient Platypustopian economy, worth 185 trillion Platypus shapd coins a year, is fairly diversified and dominated by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology and Tourism. Black market activity is rampant. Average income is an impressive 156,974 Platypus shapd coins, with the richest citizens earning 5.3 times as much as the poorest.

The national colors help to make everyone look slimmer, a shipwreck is everyone's fault but the captain's, heated town halls quickly descend into shootouts between politicians and their constituents, and the military perceives nations hit by natural disasters as "easy pickings". Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Platypustopia's national animal is the Platypus, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans, and its national religion is No.

Platypustopia is ranked 221,758th in the world and 725th in Concord for Safest, scoring 26.28 on the Bubble-Rapp Safety Rating.
