The High Cupboard of Short Oppressors is a colossal, cultured nation, ruled by Izutsumi with an iron fist, and remarkable for its rampant corporate plagiarism, free-roaming dinosaurs, and keen interest in outer space. The compassionate, cynical, cheerful population of 9.39 billion Talletariats are ruled with an iron fist by the socialist government, which grants its people the freedom to do whatever they like so long as it doesn't involve getting richer than anybody else or challenging the government.

The enormous, socially-minded, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Gunnora. The average income tax rate is 96.1%.

The frighteningly efficient Talletarian economy, worth a remarkable 1,121 trillion height points a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is highly specialized, is mostly made up of the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing, Tourism, and Trout Farming. Average income is an impressive 119,441 height points, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Sharing vacation pictures requires written consent from the entire beach resort, jabbing a baby's bottle at officials gets parents waved straight through immigration, time flies when you're not having fun, and one can wake up in Short Oppressors and have breakfast in Bigtopia. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Short Oppressors's national animal is the Siberian Tiger, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Short Oppressors is ranked 285,138^th in the world and 5^th in Leninglad for Highest Disposable Incomes, with 4,658.22 Standard Monetary Units.
