The Republic of Energized Puppet 15 is a massive, orderly nation, remarkable for its daily referendums, ubiquitous missile silos, and ritual sacrifices. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless, devout population of 2.819 billion NRGIZEDS 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 large, corrupt, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Administration. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 53.3%.

The all-consuming Energized Puppet 15ian economy, worth 255 trillion NRGS a year, is dominated by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Uranium Mining, Woodchip Exports, and Book Publishing. Black market activity is extensive. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 90,602 NRGS, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 274,681 per year while the poor average 23,239, a ratio of 11.8 to 1.

Faceless corporations are expected to assume parental responsibility over millions of teenagers, every diamond ring sold is accompanied by a twenty-five page analysis and a waiver, when shaking hands with foreign leaders Leader wears an armoured gauntlet, and politicians can't accept birthday presents from their own children. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Energized Puppet 15's national animal is the NRG DRINK, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Energized Puppet 15 is ranked 156,340th in the world and 5,896th in Osiris for Largest Gambling Industry, scoring 329.76 on the Kelly Criterion Productivity Index.
