The Obese Peoples Republic of The Sloppy Joe is a gargantuan, orderly nation, ruled by Joseph Hernandez with an iron fist, and renowned for its frequent executions, public floggings, and complete absence of social welfare. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless population of 14.975 billion Sloppy Joeses are ruled without fear or favor by a psychotic dictator, who outlaws just about everything and refers to the populace as "my little playthings."

The medium-sized, corrupt, moralistic, socially-minded, well-organized government prioritizes Defense, with Law & Order, Education, and Administration also on the agenda, while Welfare and Social Policy receive no funds. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of The Burger Kingdom. The average income tax rate is 87.4%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Sloppy Joean economy, worth a remarkable 5,886 trillion Babies 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, Information Technology, Woodchip Exports, and Uranium Mining. 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 393,098 Babies, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Buses are widely regarded as the safest way to travel, you gots to be part of the Party to get in to the party, economic planning is exalted as a human art form, and mining is the nation's most dangerous occupation. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. The Sloppy Joe's national animal is the Joey, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its national religion is Anime.

The Sloppy Joe is ranked 289,695^th in the world and 38^th in USSR for Highest Food Quality, scoring 2.84 on the Meeshlin-Starr Index.
