The Holy Empire of Snoodum is a gargantuan, orderly nation, ruled by God-Emperor Snudgskooge with an iron fist, and notable for its smutty television, lack of airports, and keen interest in outer space. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless population of 13.306 billion Snoodians are ruled by a mostly-benevolent dictator, who grants the populace the freedom to live their own lives but watches carefully for anyone to slip up.

The enormous, corrupt, well-organized government is primarily concerned with Defense, although Education, Environment, and Healthcare are also considered important. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Snudgskooge's palace. The income tax rate is 100%.

The frighteningly efficient Snoodian economy, worth a remarkable 5,550 trillion Flebs a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is an enormous, deeply entrenched, quite specialized black market in Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, and Book Publishing. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is an amazing 417,165 Flebs, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The navy is hoping to hear the enemy shout "you sank my battleship!", gift baskets often contain working nukes, politicians have seen a significant reduction in followers on their social media accounts, and calling God-Emperor Snudgskooge a tyrant is seen as the ultimate compliment. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Snoodum's national animal is the Horned Mukaboo, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Snoodism.

Snoodum is ranked 766th in the world and 36th in Lazarus for Highest Average Tax Rates, with 101.02 Effective Tax Rate.
