The People's Empire of The Skrogs is a colossal, cultured nation, ruled by The Supreme Leader with an even hand, and remarkable for its smutty television, free-roaming dinosaurs, and otherworldly petting zoo. The hard-nosed population of 5.339 billion Skroglings enjoy extensive civil rights and enjoy a level of social equality free from the usual accompanying government corruption.
The large, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Defense. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of The Subterranean Citadel of The Skrogs. The average income tax rate is 96.6%.
The frighteningly efficient Skrogsian economy, worth a remarkable 1,005 trillion Skrumps a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector is led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Book Publishing, and Tourism. Average income is an impressive 188,304 Skrumps, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.
Main battle tanks stalk the woods of The Skrogs in search of Koalas, military minds worry that 'the blue screen of death' on brand new operating systems may be a literal description, the comic book series 'The Supreme Leader and the Villainous Corporate Cronies' is a best-seller, and the seats at the back of the parliament are reserved for indigenous ministers. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. The Skrogs's national animal is the Koala, which is also the nation's favorite main course.
The Skrogs is ranked 156,088th in the world and 6,206th in Lazarus for Largest Gambling Industry, scoring 332.59 on the Kelly Criterion Productivity Index.
