The Theocracy of Puppet State 321 is a colossal, socially progressive nation, remarkable for its absence of drug laws, complete absence of social welfare, and spontaneously combusting cars. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, devout population of 2.958 billion Puppet State 321ians enjoy great individual freedoms in everything except elections, which, where they exist at all, are populist shams for a dictatorship government that has no intention of ever giving up power.

The minute, liberal, pro-business, well-organized government, or what there is of one, is primarily concerned with Spirituality, with Education, Healthcare, and Defense also on the agenda, while International Aid and Social Policy receive no funds. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 5.4%.

The strong Puppet State 321ian economy, worth 155 trillion baht a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is fairly diversified and led by the Gambling industry, with major contributions from Basket Weaving, Tourism, and Beef-Based Agriculture. Average income is 52,532 baht, but there is a vast disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 338,577 per year while the poor average 3,293, a ratio of 102 to 1.

Scientists regularly clone human beings for research purposes, pranking is an art form, the alarmingly racist TV show 'Bigtopians Say the Darndest Things' is a hit, and the nation has nearly as many history museums as Puppet State 321ians. Crime is a major problem, with the police force struggling against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. Puppet State 321's national animal is the tiger, which can occasionally be seen sifting through garbage in the nation's cities.

Puppet State 321 is ranked 319,134th in the world and 99th in Silly for Most Eco-Friendly Governments, scoring -6.32 on the Dolphin Recycling Awareness Index.
