The Empire of Goblin 2 is a titanic, safe nation, renowned for its daily referendums, public floggings, and restrictive gun laws. The hard-nosed, hard-working, devout population of 12.926 billion Goblin 2ians are free to succeed or fail in life on their own merits; the successful tend to enjoy an opulent (but moralistic) lifestyle, while the failures can be seen crowding out most jails.

The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Industry, Law & Order, and Defense. The average income tax rate is 20.9%.

The all-consuming Goblin 2ian economy, worth 868 trillion dollars a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Retail industry, with major contributions from Uranium Mining, Door-to-door Insurance Sales, and Cheese Exports. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 67,168 dollars, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 4.9 times as much as the poorest.

Television executives are interested in turning Leader's zany home life into a sitcom, attempts to inform people about their unclaimed property are often mistaken for telephone scams, children often explain to their parents that the Mega Ultimate Sword Fist was worth the thousand-dollar charge on their phone bill, and the government has declined to declare any particular religion as its 'official' one. Crime, especially youth-related, is moderate, possibly because it is difficult to make it through a day without breaking one of the country's many regulations. Goblin 2's national animal is the kiwi, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Goblin 2 is ranked 169,312th in the world and 8th in Gobbotopia for Least Corrupt Governments, with 93.14 percentage of bribes refused.
