The Community of Pomboodowl is a huge, genial nation, remarkable for its fear of technology, irreverence towards religion, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, democratic population of 329 million Pomboodowlians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.
The large, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Welfare, Education, and Law & Order. The average income tax rate is 45.6%, but much higher for the wealthy.
The sizeable but sluggish Pomboodowlian economy, worth 8.97 trillion florins a year, is led by the Basket Weaving industry, with major contributions from Cheese Exports, Book Publishing, and Tourism. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 27,274 florins, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.
The Violetist community celebrates bombshells being dropped on Pomboodowl, serial commas clarify the relationship between one's lackeys, the taxpayers, and kinsfolk, no one believes anything until it has been strenuously tested and peer-reviewed, and Leader has been nicknamed 'Robomop'. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Pomboodowl's national animal is the dove, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.
Pomboodowl is ranked 171,343rd in the world and 93rd in The Region That Has No Big Banks for Fattest Citizens, with 9.8 Obesity Rate.
