The Outskirts of Outer Bigtopia is a colossal, efficient nation, notable for its barren, inhospitable landscape, compulsory military service, and restrictive gun laws. The hard-nosed, hard-working population of 4.946 billion Outer Bigtopians are effectively ruled by a group of massive corporations, who run for political office and provide their well-off citizens with world-class goods and services. Their poorer citizens, however, are mostly starving to death while being urged to go out and get real jobs. The populace has reasonably extensive civil rights, although these are mostly aimed at allowing them to buy whatever they like.

The relatively small, pro-business government juggles the competing demands of Healthcare, Administration, and Defense. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 12.6%.

The very strong Outer Bigtopian economy, worth 228 trillion Universal Standard Dollars a year, is quite specialized and led by the Retail industry, with major contributions from Uranium Mining, Furniture Restoration, and Soda Sales. Average income is 46,112 Universal Standard Dollars, but there is a large disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 227,251 per year while the poor average 5,333, a ratio of 42.6 to 1.

Foragers descend on national cemeteries for 'all-you-can-dig-up' extravaganzas, parents are held criminally responsible for their children's crimes, judges who serve for life or good behavior can expect to stay for a week, and disputed territories across Osiris are being claimed by Outer Bigtopian college students. Crime, especially youth-related, is pervasive, probably because of the absence of a police force. Outer Bigtopia's national animal is the Bigtopian Turkey, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Outer Bigtopia is ranked 138,152nd in the world and 6,053rd in Osiris for Largest Populations, with 4.95 billion capita.
