The State of Controller is a titanic, socially progressive nation, notable for its complete lack of prisons. The hard-working, democratic population of 11.578 billion Controllerians, 11.016 billion of whom are zombies, have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The large government prioritizes Welfare, with Education, Healthcare, and Industry also on the agenda. The average income tax rate is 33.0%.

The Controllerian economy, worth a remarkable 1,335 trillion betales a year, is quite specialized and led by the Woodchip Exports industry, with major contributions from Basket Weaving, Information Technology, and Book Publishing. Average income is 36,146 betales, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.5 times as much as the poorest.

Euthanasia is legal. Crime is moderate, perhaps because of the country's complete lack of prisons. Controller's national animal is the deer.

Controller is ranked 41,799^th in the world and 1^st in Controller for Highest Foreign Aid Spending, scoring 801.48 on the Clooney Contribution Index.
