The Dictatorship of New Potato Overlods is a massive, safe nation, notable for its keen interest in outer space, frequent executions, and stringent health and safety legislation. The hard-nosed population of 3.392 billion New Potato Overlodsians 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 government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Administration. The average income tax rate is 25.7%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The New Potato Overlodsian economy, worth 150 trillion Potato Chips a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Book Publishing industry, with major contributions from Automobile Manufacturing, Beef-Based Agriculture, and Trout Farming. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 44,491 Potato Chips, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.4 times as much as the poorest.

The government advises foreign diplomats to speak softly and carry a big bag of cash, school uniforms are compulsory, truncheon-mounted cameras record the beating of criminals in dynamic HD detail, and weird or unusual crimes merit cruel and unusual punishments. Crime, especially youth-related, is almost non-existent, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. New Potato Overlods's national animal is the Potato Lion, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

New Potato Overlods is ranked 260,109th in the world and 8,538th in Balder for Most Stationary, with 14.9451987684 days.
