Overview • Factbook • Policies • People • Government • Economy • Rank • Trend • Cards

The United Kingdom of South Toboga is a colossal, safe nation, ruled by Marcel III von Eppstein with an even hand, and notable for its compulsory military service, pith helmet sales, and public floggings. The hard-nosed population of 6.368 billion South Tobogans are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The enormous, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Education, Defense, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Ritchholm. The average income tax rate is 90.4%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient South Tobogan economy, worth 779 trillion ceroes a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is highly specialized, is led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Tourism, and Basket Weaving. Average income is an impressive 122,481 ceroes, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Sermons are regularly interrupted by businessmen taking phone calls, recognizing the South Tobogan flag qualifies you for citizenship, Marcel III von Eppstein is considering changing the South Tobogan flag to one with more glitter, and country folk are sent to obligatory boarding schools to learn how to be civilized. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. South Toboga's national animal is the salmon, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans, and its national religion is State Enforced Atheism.

South Toboga is ranked 233,833^rd in the world and 338^th in The Glorious Nations of Iwaku for Most Primitive, scoring -339.22 on the Scary Big Number Scale.
