The Borderlands of Repressing fools is a gargantuan, orderly nation, ruled by The Best Leader of the Best Country with an iron fist, and remarkable for its ritual sacrifices, flagrant waste-dumping, and restrictive gun laws. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless, devout population of 16.81 billion Repressed Fools are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."

The medium-sized, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government is dominated by the Department of Defense, with Law & Order, Spirituality, and Administration also on the agenda, while Welfare and Environment receive no funds. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Capital City of Repressing. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 93.1%.

The frighteningly efficient Repressed Fool economy, worth a remarkable 9,170 trillion Round rocks a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is an enormous, deeply entrenched, broadly diversified black market in Arms Manufacturing, Uranium Mining, Woodchip Exports, and Furniture Restoration. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is a breathtaking 545,510 Round rocks, with the richest citizens earning 6.6 times as much as the poorest.

The nation is under martial law, the teaching of evolution has been banned, many say faith is a crutch for those who can't move forward, and it is still not known if the commander in chief outranks the supreme commander. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force. Repressing fools's national animal is the Pig, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Glorious Leader is Eternal God.

Repressing fools is ranked 283,167th in the world and 5,006th in The East Pacific for Most Armed, with 0.14 weapons per person.
