The Obesotocracy of Treadwellia is a gargantuan, orderly nation, ruled by Tubbius with an iron fist, and remarkable for its infamous sell-swords, sprawling nuclear power plants, and free-roaming dinosaurs. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless, devout population of 26.718 billion Tubbians 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 juggles the competing demands of Industry, Spirituality, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Piggy Cliff. The average income tax rate is 98.0%.

The frighteningly efficient Tubbian economy, worth an astonishing 16,570 trillion Gold Tummies a year, is broadly diversified and mostly comprised of black market activity, especially in Uranium Mining, Retail, Pizza Delivery, and Soda Sales. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is a breathtaking 620,208 Gold Tummies, but there is an enormous disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 3,540,267 per year while the poor average 52,661, a ratio of 67.2 to 1.

Chalkboards are replaced with billboards in the classroom, the government has the power to seize property at will, banning party poppers has been a real party pooper, and major polluting industries have painted a lot of their machines green to give an impression of caring about the environment. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force. Treadwellia's national animal is the pig, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Tubbianism.

Treadwellia is ranked 290,556^th in the world and 11,333^rd in Lazarus for Highest Food Quality, scoring 1.35 on the Meeshlin-Starr Index.
