The Mansion of Doc Scratch is a gargantuan, socially progressive nation, ruled by Doc Scratch with an iron fist, and notable for its keen interest in outer space, unlimited-speed roads, and irreverence towards religion. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless population of 26.199 billion Felts are ruled with an iron fist by the dictatorship government, which ensures that no-one outside the party gets too rich. In their personal lives, however, citizens are relatively unoppressed; it remains to be seen whether this is because the government genuinely cares about its people, or if it hasn't gotten around to stamping out civil rights yet.

The enormous, corrupt, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Education, Industry, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of The Green Moon. The average income tax rate is 92.7%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Felt economy, worth a remarkable 3,137 trillion Greenbacks a year, is led by the Beef-Based Agriculture industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Tourism, and Automobile Manufacturing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 119,743 Greenbacks, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Concert halls sport signs proclaiming "No Shorts, Sandals or Swastikas", the nation's faithful often say there is a higher power watching over them, the song 'They Got an Awful Lot of Coffee in Doc Scratch' is a smash hit, and government fact-checkers use surprising amounts of high explosive. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Doc Scratch's national animal is the Troll, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Doc Scratch is ranked 18,537th in the world and 1st in Homestuck for Lowest Crime Rates, with 90.95 law-abiding acts per hour.
