The Mind Controling Dominion of The Puppet Masters is a gargantuan, safe nation, notable for its compulsory military service, anti-smoking policies, and restrictive gun laws. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless population of 37.727 billion Puppet Masters are ruled with an iron fist by the corrupt, dictatorship government, which oppresses anyone who isn't on the board of a Fortune 500 company. Large corporations tend to be above the law, and use their financial clout to gain ever-increasing government benefits at the expense of the poor and unemployed.

The tiny, moralistic, pro-business, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Industry. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 6.9%.

The all-consuming Puppet Mastersian economy, worth a remarkable 4,270 trillion Dollars a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Automobile Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Door-to-door Insurance Sales, and Gambling. Average income is an impressive 113,186 Dollars, but there is an enormous disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 643,071 per year while the poor average 9,713, a ratio of 66.2 to 1.

Political activists are routinely executed, euthanasia is illegal, a National Academy regulates grammar and usage, and reporters often lose their jobs over fact-checking errors. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force. The Puppet Masters's national animal is the Puppet, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

The Puppet Masters is ranked 63,514^th in the world and 2^nd in The Shire for Most Corrupt Governments, with 28.66 kickbacks per hour.
