The Democratic Minion's Republic of The Haughtherlands is a colossal, genial nation, ruled by Supreme Sponge Joseth Spongister with an even hand, and renowned for its multi-spousal wedding ceremonies, smutty television, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, democratic population of 6.171 billion Theditch enjoy extensive civil rights and enjoy a level of social equality free from the usual accompanying government corruption.

The enormous, liberal government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Liquorice Lagoon. The average income tax rate is 92.3%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The all-consuming Theditch economy, worth 652 trillion Sponge Sterlings a year, is quite specialized and led by the Trout Farming industry, with major contributions from Book Publishing, Information Technology, and Tourism. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 105,767 Sponge Sterlings, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The internet has been placed under government control, the government prefers to kill off its enemies by peaceful means, Supreme Sponge Joseth Spongister can cry on demand, and customer satisfaction with online delivery services is at an all time high. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. The Haughtherlands's national animal is the Kitchen Sponge, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Spongism.

The Haughtherlands is ranked 13,689th in the world and 310th in the South Pacific for Lowest Crime Rates, with 95.27 law-abiding acts per hour.
