The DaS Puppet State of Idotistanistan is a massive, socially progressive nation, ruled by The Ux with an iron fist, and remarkable for its barren, inhospitable landscape, deadly medical pandemics, and complete lack of prisons. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical population of 4.534 billion Idotistanistanians are proud of their wide-ranging civil freedoms, and those who aren't tend to be dragged off the streets by men in dark suits and hustled into cars with tinted windows.

The relatively small, corrupt, liberal, well-organized government prioritizes Industry, although Education, Healthcare, and Administration are also considered important, while Welfare and Environment aren't funded at all. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Vertigo. The average income tax rate is 15.5%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Idotistanistanian economy, worth 560 trillion Rallods a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Retail industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Arms Manufacturing, and Uranium Mining. Black market activity is notable. Average income is an impressive 123,580 Rallods, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.0 times as much as the poorest.

The "Dreadnowt" is the pride and joy of the Idotistanistanian Navy, babies are a small but significant export, teddy bear James Dean (aka "the Rebel Without the Claws") helps convince kids that candy cigarettes are cool, and doctors ask for written consent before making eye contact with patients. Crime, especially youth-related, is a serious problem, perhaps because of the country's complete lack of prisons. Idotistanistan's national animal is the Idotistanistani Mountain Cat, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is No Official Religion.

Idotistanistan is ranked 30,679^th in the world and 979^th in The North Pacific for Highest Foreign Aid Spending, scoring 907.21 on the Clooney Contribution Index.
