The Agent of Bobberino is a titanic, orderly nation, ruled by Bob with an iron fist, and remarkable for its smutty television, pith helmet sales, and complete lack of prisons. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, devout population of 17.363 billion bones are ruled by a mostly-benevolent dictator, who grants the populace the freedom to live their own lives but watches carefully for anyone to slip up.

The relatively small, corrupt, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Industry, Defense, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Minas Tirith. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 19.9%.

The frighteningly efficient bones economy, worth a remarkable 2,790 trillion boneses a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Retail industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Arms Manufacturing, and Uranium Mining. Black market activity is frequent. Average income is an impressive 160,705 boneses, with the richest citizens earning 7.8 times as much as the poorest.

The Counter-Terrorism Unit has been nicknamed "Big Bad Wolf" for its tendency towards urban demolition, the single fish caught by bones fishers last year is cited as evidence of Bobberino's thriving fisheries, gun-wielding criminals always wear appropriate eye and ear protection, and chocolate in Bobberino has its flavour enhanced by the salty tears of enslaved factory workers. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Bobberino's national animal is the bones, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Catholicism.

Bobberino is ranked 63,265th in the world and 3,416th in Lazarus for Most Advanced Law Enforcement, scoring 4,485.24 on the Orwell Orderliness Index.
