The Peaceful Free Republic of Tubularia is a gargantuan, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Benevolent God-Emperor for Eternity Oki with an iron fist, and notable for its compulsory military service, state-planned economy, and stringent health and safety legislation. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless, devout population of 20 billion little playthings 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 enormous, corrupt, moralistic, socially-minded, well-organized government is primarily concerned with Defense, with Education, Law & Order, and Administration also on the agenda, while International Aid is ignored. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Ephebe. The income tax rate is 100%.

The frighteningly efficient Tubularian economy, worth an astonishing 11,848 trillion tusks 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, quite specialized black market in Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, and Furniture Restoration. 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 a breathtaking 592,418 tusks, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Political loyalty is enforced by way of chemical addiction, the writing style of religious hymns often changes mid-stanza, the space program has been reduced to Benevolent God-Emperor for Eternity Oki's nephew playing with a cardboard space shuttle, and it is illegal to brush crumbs off your clothing outdoors. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Tubularia's national animal is the elephant, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Sekkism.

Tubularia is ranked 291,529^th in the world and 5^th in Deliciousness for Safest, scoring 2.15 on the Bubble-Rapp Safety Rating.
