The Gigantic Frozen Igloo of Studly Penguins is a gargantuan, socially progressive nation, ruled by Hiram Fox with a fair hand, and renowned for its museums and concert halls, anti-smoking policies, and national health service. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic, humorless population of 25.695 billion Studly Penguinians enjoy a sensible mix of personal and economic freedoms, while the political process is open and the people's right to vote held sacrosanct.

The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Education, Industry, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Fort McGuire. The average income tax rate is 98.7%.

The frighteningly efficient Studly Penguinian economy, worth a remarkable 8,237 trillion Kroner a year, is quite specialized and mostly made up of the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism and Book Publishing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an amazing 320,580 Kroner, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Military service is compulsory, sales of superhero insurance have skyrocketed after the government abandoned the police in favor of vigilantes, saying "don't do anything that Hiram Fox wouldn't do" doesn't exclude a great deal, and the only violent vigilantes are the ones in police uniforms. Crime is totally unknown. Studly Penguins's national animal is the Super-Hyped Up Penguin, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans.

Studly Penguins is ranked 281,760^th in the world and 93^rd in Texas for Most Cheerful Citizens, with 24.34 Percentage Of Water Glasses Perceived Half-Full.
