The Federation of Polling Booths is a titanic, orderly nation, ruled by The Pollster with an iron fist, and notable for its free-roaming dinosaurs, lack of airports, and frequent executions. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless, devout population of 24.074 billion Polling Boothsians 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 minute, corrupt government, or what there is of one, is primarily concerned with Administration, with Healthcare and Law & Order also on the agenda, while International Aid and Spirituality receive no funds. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of The Poll Booth. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 1.6%.

The frighteningly efficient Polling Boothsian economy, worth a remarkable 3,249 trillion Electoral Roles a year, is led by the Retail industry, with major contributions from Uranium Mining, Woodchip Exports, and Book Publishing. Black market activity is extensive. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 134,983 Electoral Roles, but there is a large disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 528,095 per year while the poor average 23,504, a ratio of 22.5 to 1.

The police force is rumoured to be made up of evil shadows with no souls, jaywalking is punishable by public flogging, Polling Boothsians caught jaywalking often have their houses seized by the police, and video evidence of cruel animal experiments tends to be of poor quality. Crime is all-pervasive, perhaps because of the country's complete lack of prisons. Polling Booths's national animal is the Ballot, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Polling.

Polling Booths is ranked 267,419^th in the world and 1,204^th in Europeia for Most Eco-Friendly Governments, scoring -3.16 on the Dolphin Recycling Awareness Index.
