The Republic of SmitopBot21 is a gargantuan, orderly nation, renowned for its sprawling nuclear power plants, national health service, and public floggings. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless, devout population of 10.312 billion SmitopBot21ians are ruled with an iron fist by the dictatorship government, which ensures that no-one outside the party gets too rich. In their personal lives, however, citizens are relatively unoppressed; it remains to be seen whether this is because the government genuinely cares about its people, or if it hasn't gotten around to stamping out civil rights yet.

The medium-sized, corrupt, socially-minded, well-organized government prioritizes Administration, although Industry, Law & Order, and Healthcare are also considered important, while International Aid is ignored. The average income tax rate is 31.1%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient SmitopBot21ian economy, worth a remarkable 2,081 trillion guilders 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, quite specialized black market in Arms Manufacturing, Retail, Uranium Mining, and Woodchip Exports. 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 201,818 guilders, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Unemployed youngsters trained to kill are being released en masse into society, lavish state dinners in SmitopBot21 City are the state's leading budgetary expenditure, people are bored of easy crossword puzzles, and several citizens have complained about scientists abducting their pets for experimentation. Crime, especially youth-related, is relatively low, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. SmitopBot21's national animal is the lion, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

SmitopBot21 is ranked 13,897th in the world and 99th in SmitopBots for Most Subsidized Industry, scoring 8,491.47 on the Gilded Widget Scale.
