The Republic of Running out of puppet names is a colossal, environmentally stunning nation, remarkable for its ubiquitous missile silos, smutty television, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate, cynical, devout population of 4.684 billion puppets are highly moralistic and fiercely conservative, in the sense that they tend to believe most things should be outlawed. People who have good jobs and work quietly at them are lauded; others are viewed with suspicion.

The medium-sized, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Education. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 54.5%.

The all-consuming puppets economy, worth 477 trillion Duckcoins a year, is broadly diversified and dominated by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Cheese Exports, and Furniture Restoration. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 101,968 Duckcoins, with the richest citizens earning 6.1 times as much as the poorest.

Leader can often be seen hanging around playgrounds chatting with the kids, the new one Duckcoin coin also makes a handy throwing-star, trolls insist that strings of racial slurs mean "good morning" in obscure languages, and people who stay late at the office often come home to find their own funeral being planned. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Running out of puppet names's national animal is the Duck, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Running out of puppet names is ranked 222,939^th in the world and 2^nd in Mercenaries of Orbis for Largest Insurance Industry, scoring -4 on the Risk Expulsion Effectiveness Rating.
