The Podrian Testing Ground of Podria 2 Electric Boogaloo is a gargantuan, safe nation, ruled by Podria with an iron fist, and notable for its state-planned economy, irreverence towards religion, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate, cynical population of 11.206 billion Podrian Playthings 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, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Welfare, Education, and Defense. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Podria. The average income tax rate is 70.5%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The sizeable but stagnant Podrian Playthingian economy, worth 75.9 trillion Podrias a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is quite specialized, is mostly made up of the Trout Farming industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing, Retail, and Arms Manufacturing. Average income is 6,773 Podrias, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Every week is blindness awareness week, Podria 2 Electric Boogaloo has designated Podria as its capital city, Podria is the self-declared God of all Podria 2 Electric Boogaloo, and Podria has just been declared ruler of Podria 2 Electric Boogaloo in an international press conference. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Podria 2 Electric Boogaloo's national animal is the Podria, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Podria.

Podria 2 Electric Boogaloo is ranked 183,598th in the world and 46th in Transbian for Smartest Citizens, with 26.84 quips per hour.
