The Dictatorship of Puppeteer is a gargantuan, environmentally stunning nation, remarkable for its compulsory vegetarianism, punitive income tax rates, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate population of 16.105 billion Puppeteerians are prohibited from doing almost everything except voting, which they do timidly and conservatively.

The enormous, moralistic, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Welfare, Education, and Public Transport. The average income tax rate is 73.5%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The sizeable but stagnant Puppeteerian economy, worth 75.2 trillion poptarts a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is quite specialized, is led by the Trout Farming industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Basket Weaving, and Uranium Mining. Average income is 4,668 poptarts, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The latest Harry Potter book is a bestseller, the nation is ravaged by daily union strikes, TV shows must meet strict ethnicity quotas, and extreme political groups are outlawed. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Puppeteer's national animal is the Puppet, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Puppeteer is ranked 34,255th in the world and 313th in Balder for Most Stationary, with 1,295.42946259128 days.
