The Duds of Port Apotti is a titanic, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Colonel Sandra Hunnibukett with an iron fist, and renowned for its deadly medical pandemics, public floggings, and enslaved workforce. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless, devout population of 20.696 billion Port Apottians 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, corrupt, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Outhousetown. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 77.2%.

The frighteningly efficient Port Apottian economy, worth a remarkable 3,372 trillion Doubloons a year, is broadly diversified and mostly comprised of black market activity, especially in Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, Uranium Mining, and Retail. Average income is an impressive 162,961 Doubloons, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 578,874 per year while the poor average 33,060, a ratio of 17.5 to 1.

A certain animated paperclip is enjoying his sunset years at the government's expense, citizens can only enjoy the splendor of the natural world in designated 'Majesty Appreciation' zones, petitions to the government are being used to insulate politicians' office walls, and outdoor parties in Outhousetown are all the rave. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Port Apotti's national animal is the Skunk, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is United Gnostic Unitarian.

Port Apotti is ranked 120,399th in the world and 44th in The Dudlands for Largest Insurance Industry, scoring 1,756.58 on the Risk Expulsion Effectiveness Rating.
