The Elastic Adventures of Captain Underpants is a gargantuan, orderly nation, ruled by Mr Krupp with an iron fist, and remarkable for its free-roaming dinosaurs, ritual sacrifices, and enslaved workforce. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless, devout population of 14.686 billion Captain Underpantsians 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 government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Industry. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 44.9%.

The thriving Captain Underpantsian economy, worth a remarkable 1,172 trillion underwears a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Beef-Based Agriculture, Trout Farming, and Furniture Restoration. Black market activity is frequent. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 79,818 underwears, with the richest citizens earning 6.8 times as much as the poorest.

The navy is chrome-plating its battleships to prevent rust, the family summer vacation has become a thing of the past following the introduction of the year-round school year, money can't buy happiness but it can buy immunity to prosecution, and prisoners work-share to cut down rising costs of keeping them in jail. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Captain Underpants's national animal is the gerbil, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Captain Underpants is ranked 232,900^th in the world and 12^th in Regency Puppets for Safest, scoring 19.39 on the Bubble-Rapp Safety Rating.
