The Community of Puppopolis is a very large, environmentally stunning nation, remarkable for its state-planned economy, punitive income tax rates, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, democratic population of 283 million Puppopolisians are free to do what they want with their own bodies, and vote for whomever they like in elections; if they go into business, however, they are regulated to within an inch of their lives.

The enormous, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Welfare, Healthcare, and Education. The average income tax rate is 59.8%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The sizeable but stagnant Puppopolisian economy, worth 2.89 trillion kibbles a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is quite specialized, is dominated by the Trout Farming industry, with significant contributions from Cheese Exports, Furniture Restoration, and Tourism. Average income is 10,223 kibbles, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Cricket farmers use magnifying glasses to fit every member of their herd with tiny tracking tags, Puppopolisian tourists are encouraged to hand out spare condoms to locals while on vacation, the nightly news reports prosaically on the government blindly throwing money at despotic kidnappers, and the armed forces pride themselves on being conventional and predictable. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Puppopolis's national animal is the raccoon, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Puppopolis is ranked 210,632nd in the world and 543rd in The Leftist Assembly for Largest Publishing Industry, scoring 151.66 on the Bella Potter Productivity e-Index.
