The Community of Joe Bobs is a gargantuan, socially progressive nation, ruled by Non Navigator Babbs with a fair hand, and notable for its complete lack of prisons, hatred of cheese, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful population of 26.783 billion Bobbians are free to do what they want with their own bodies, and vote for whomever they like in elections; if they go into business, however, they are regulated to within an inch of their lives.

The medium-sized, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Education, Environment, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Edge City. The average income tax rate is 94.9%.

The enormous but inefficient Joe Bobsian economy, worth a remarkable 2,051 trillion bobs a year, is driven almost entirely by government activity, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector is mostly comprised of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, although the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is 76,584 bobs, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Resident physicians are said to have a silver scalpel in their hands, the nation wears its high incidence of chromosomal diseases as a badge of pride, universities spend millions cultivating ivy on their buildings, and lobotomies haven't been the same after the practice was severed. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Joe Bobs's national animal is the gekko, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Joe Bobs is ranked 296,553^rd in the world and 3^rd in Global Right Alliance for Most Primitive, scoring -285.64 on the Scary Big Number Scale.
