The Republic of Potato Bed is a gargantuan, socially progressive nation, notable for its barren, inhospitable landscape, irreverence towards religion, and absence of drug laws. The hard-working, democratic population of 10.066 billion Potato Bedians live in a state of perpetual fear, as a complete breakdown of social order has led to the rise of order through biker gangs.

The tiny, liberal, pro-business, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Healthcare, and Welfare. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 6.9%.

The thriving Potato Bedian economy, worth 609 trillion yuhs a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is fairly diversified and led by the Gambling industry, with significant contributions from Automobile Manufacturing, Door-to-door Insurance Sales, and Information Technology. Average income is 60,503 yuhs, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 214,164 per year while the poor average 12,341, a ratio of 17.4 to 1.

Scientists regularly clone human beings for research purposes. Crime is a problem, with the police force struggling against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. Potato Bed's national animal is the potato, which can occasionally be seen sifting through garbage in the nation's cities.

Potato Bed is ranked 248,000^th in the world and 172^nd in The Transitionists for Largest Cheese Export Sector, scoring -3.46 on the Mozzarella Productivity Index.
