The Pebbsi of Of the Tyrannical Frogs is a colossal, efficient nation, ruled by Six Grains of Gravel Mountains Abound with an iron fist, and remarkable for its enslaved workforce, anti-smoking policies, and ritual sacrifices. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless, devout population of 5.017 billion Frogsians are ruled without fear or favor by a psychotic dictator, who outlaws just about everything and refers to the populace as "my little playthings."

The large, corrupt, 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 12th Council Pillar House of Braids. The average income tax rate is 86.8%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Frogsian economy, worth 972 trillion Areuses a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is an enormous, deeply entrenched black market in Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, Uranium Mining, and Woodchip Exports. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is an impressive 193,853 Areuses, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.1 times as much as the poorest.

People's charity begins and ends at home, genetic research has been halted, exorbitant spending on icebreakers breaks the ice at every budget meeting, and the police use sound cannons and mortars to deal with loud parties. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Of the Tyrannical Frogs's national animal is the Broad-winged Hawk, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to toxic air pollution, and its national religion is Pebbsi.

Of the Tyrannical Frogs is ranked 22,734^th in the world and 657^th in The North Pacific for Most Subsidized Industry, scoring 6,664.94 on the Gilded Widget Scale.
