The Republic of Puppet State 341 is a colossal, socially progressive nation, renowned for its stringent health and safety legislation. The hard-nosed, cynical population of 4.043 billion Puppet State 341ians 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 medium-sized, socially-minded, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Welfare. The average income tax rate is 28.3%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The large but underdeveloped Puppet State 341ian economy, worth 108 trillion kronor a year, is quite specialized and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Beef-Based Agriculture, and Basket Weaving. Black market activity is notable. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 26,774 kronor, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

TV shows must meet strict ethnicity quotas, organ donation rates are among the lowest in the region, you're only as old as you feel, and it turns out that money can buy you happiness. Crime is almost non-existent, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Puppet State 341's national animal is the beaver.

Puppet State 341 is ranked 296,106^th in the world and 55^th in Silly for Most Developed, scoring 45.94 on the Human Development Index.
