The Purple Pizza Zombie of Smokeypotamus is a gargantuan, environmentally stunning nation, remarkable for its lack of airports, anti-smoking policies, and smutty television. The compassionate, democratic, humorless, devout population of 28.13 billion Smokeypotamusians love a good election, and the government gives them plenty of them. Universities tend to be full of students debating the merits of various civil and political rights, while businesses are tightly regulated and the wealthy viewed with suspicion.

The government — a sprawling, bureaucracy-choked, socially-minded, outspoken morass — juggles the competing demands of Education, Environment, and Social Policy. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Chronicopolis. The average income tax rate is 95.7%.

The Smokeypotamusian economy, worth a remarkable 2,112 trillion indicas a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector is solely comprised of the Book Publishing industry. Average income is 75,105 indicas, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

There's a shortage of swinging hot spots as land development grinds to a halt, a weakened police force struggles to maintain law and order, the nation leads 10000 Islands in per capita stalking, and ad-blocking has been nationalised. Crime is totally unknown. Smokeypotamus's national animal is the vampire sativa, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Smokeypotamus is ranked 43,986th in the world and 312th in 10000 Islands for Most Subsidized Industry, scoring 4,368.73 on the Gilded Widget Scale.
