The Republic of The 300th puppet is a massive, environmentally stunning nation, renowned for its parental licensing program, keen interest in outer space, and complete absence of social welfare. The hard-nosed, cynical, devout population of 4.595 billion 300th puppetians are ruled without fear or favor by a psychotic dictator, who outlaws just about everything and refers to the populace as "my little playthings."
The large, corrupt, moralistic, socially-minded government prioritizes Defense, with Law & Order, Industry, and Administration also on the agenda, while Welfare receives no funds. The average income tax rate is 72.1%, and even higher for the wealthy.
The frighteningly efficient 300th puppetian economy, worth 479 trillion Three Hundred Rials 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 a slick, highly efficient, quite specialized black market in Arms Manufacturing, Tourism, Information Technology, and Uranium Mining. 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 an impressive 104,338 Three Hundred Rials, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.3 times as much as the poorest.
Pulling weeds is seen as a threat to national security, asking 'does my bum look big in this?' leads to 30 hours of self-esteem classes, officials pull all-nighters to check immigrants for potential links to terrorists, and the upper class have been throwing riots after hunting was recently banned. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. The 300th puppet's national animal is the Three Hundred Frogs, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.
The 300th puppet is ranked 209,760th in the world and 560th in The Funian Puppet Region for Largest Cheese Export Sector, scoring 691.01 on the Mozzarella Productivity Index.
