The Chill Zone of Boszap is a gargantuan, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Dyex with an iron fist, and remarkable for its free-roaming dinosaurs, otherworldly petting zoo, and smutty television. The compassionate, hard-working, cynical population of 13.855 billion Bosseses 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 large, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Clam City. The average income tax rate is 94.5%.

The frighteningly efficient Boszapian economy, worth a remarkable 2,249 trillion toonamis a year, is quite specialized and mostly made up of the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Book Publishing, and Tourism. Average income is an impressive 162,379 toonamis, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.3 times as much as the poorest.

The government has returned all business to private ownership, flash floods that dams could have controlled regularly ravage small towns in mountain valleys, jury selection begins with explaining what a jury is, and one tree's worth of paperwork accompanies each imported log of timber. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Boszap's national animal is the Dogoocatto, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Bebopcomputer.

Boszap is ranked 308,052nd in the world and 3,621st in the West Pacific for Most Primitive, scoring -528.4 on the Scary Big Number Scale.
