The Republic of Nkbpuppet25 is a massive, environmentally stunning nation, notable for its parental licensing program, ban on automobiles, and suspicion of poets. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless population of 4.322 billion Nkbpuppet25ians 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, well-organized government is primarily concerned with Defense, with Education, Law & Order, and Industry also on the agenda, while Spirituality and International Aid aren't funded at all. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 25.0%.

The powerhouse Nkbpuppet25ian economy, worth 474 trillion NKBS a year, is broadly diversified and dominated by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Retail, Furniture Restoration, and Beef-Based Agriculture. Black market activity is rampant. Average income is an impressive 109,707 NKBS, but there is a large disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 431,730 per year while the poor average 18,921, a ratio of 22.8 to 1.

Power stations shutting down at night has made bedtime reading tricky, panels from bankrupt rooftop solar companies are used as props for sci-fi B-movies, the nationalistic national anthem inspires citizens to literally spit at foreigners, and evenings at university debating societies often end with everyone acknowledging both sides may well be right. Crime is relatively low, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Nkbpuppet25's national animal is the NKB, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Nkbpuppet25 is ranked 276,594th in the world and 10,380th in Lazarus for Highest Food Quality, scoring 6.19 on the Meeshlin-Starr Index.
