The Confederacy of Hoddisevon Terptopia is a huge, genial nation, notable for its restrictive gun laws, devotion to social welfare, and stringent health and safety legislation. The cynical population of 221 million Hoddisevon Terptopians are ruled without fear or favor by a psychotic dictator, who outlaws just about everything and refers to the populace as "my little playthings."

The enormous, moralistic, socially-minded, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Welfare, Law & Order, and Defense. The average income tax rate is 73.1%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The sizeable but stagnant Hoddisevon Terptopian economy, worth 1.53 trillion dollars 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 mostly made up of the Trout Farming industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing and Tourism. Average income is 6,927 dollars, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The latest Harry Potter book is a bestseller, high-income earners pay a 100% tax rate, the media have begun calling the government treasury "Leader's stash", and tourists on boat cruises can't figure out why they smell so fishy afterward. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Hoddisevon Terptopia's national animal is the crocodile, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans.

Hoddisevon Terptopia is ranked 294,486^th in the world and 2^nd in hans muito pelado for Most Advanced Public Transport, scoring 294.65 on the Societal Mobility Rating.
