The Oppressive Evil Empire of Testlandstuff is a colossal, efficient nation, ruled by Supreme Evil Emperor Overlord Vlad Nyx with an iron fist, and notable for its ban on automobiles, complete lack of public education, and suspicion of poets. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless, devout population of 9.284 billion Opressed Ones are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."

The medium-sized, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government is dominated by the Department of Defense, although Law & Order, Industry, and Spirituality are also considered important, while Environment and Social Policy receive no funds. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Vlad Nyxington. The average income tax rate is 90.8%.

The frighteningly efficient Opressed economy, worth a remarkable 4,045 trillion blehs 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, broadly diversified black market in Arms Manufacturing, Uranium Mining, Woodchip Exports, and Gambling. 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 435,756 blehs, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 4.9 times as much as the poorest.

The state has declared war on the environment and environmentalists by association, naturists are jailed regularly for indecent exposure, chest pains are considered part of the dining experience in Opressed restaurants, and bands of adventurers rove the countryside searching for monsters. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force. Testlandstuff's national animal is the Genetically Modified Evil Dinosaur, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Vlad Nyxism.

Testlandstuff is ranked 273,324^th in the world and 126^th in Psychotic Dictatorships for Most Advanced Public Education, scoring -23.24 on the Edu-tellignce® Test Score.
