The Hostile Takeover of Tapatalk is a colossal, orderly nation, remarkable for its multi-spousal wedding ceremonies, public floggings, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate, cynical population of 9.575 billion Tapatalkers are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."

The large government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Education, and Administration. The average income tax rate is 56.9%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The powerhouse Tapatalkian economy, worth 842 trillion ZB user tears a year, is fairly diversified and dominated by the Trout Farming industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing, Information Technology, and Door-to-door Insurance Sales. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 87,956 ZB user tears, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Foreigners write "made in Tapatalk" on shoddy merchandise in hope of receiving a buy-out, modelling agencies send their clients to work in nursing homes, a suspicious number of male students have joined the Ladies' Wrestling League, and AIs make up a majority of the long-term warehouse population. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Tapatalk's national animal is the unpaid user, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Tapatalk is ranked 228,657th in the world and 13th in Aelstun for Most Primitive, scoring -105.97 on the Scary Big Number Scale.
