The Robocracy of Awesomeland is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by Friend Computer with an even hand, and renowned for its rum-swilling pirates, frequent executions, and vat-grown people. The hard-nosed, hard-working, humorless population of 32.472 billion Awesomelandians enjoy some of the most opulent lifestyles in the region, unless they are unemployed or working-class, in which case they are variously starving to death or crippled by easily preventable diseases.

The minute, corrupt, pro-business government, or what there is of one, prioritizes Defense, although Education and Industry are also considered important, while Welfare and Spirituality receive no funds. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of The Mountainhome. Income tax is unheard of.

The frighteningly efficient Awesomelandian economy, worth an astonishing 16,598 trillion Shinies a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Retail, and Soda Sales. Average income is a breathtaking 511,170 Shinies, but there is a large disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 2,514,507 per year while the poor average 59,339, a ratio of 42.4 to 1.

Friend Computer is described as an everyday person with normal tastes and the usual interests, official government guidance encourages binge behaviors, double-parking is on the rise as automobile numbers increase, and actively encouraging climate change is helping reduce winter fuel costs. Crime, especially youth-related, is so common that it is unusual to encounter someone following the law, perhaps because of the country's complete lack of prisons. Awesomeland's national animal is the killer carp, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Awesomeland is ranked 332,532nd in the world and 18,013th in Lazarus for Highest Average Tax Rates, with -9.65 Effective Tax Rate.
