The Republic of We like Potato is a large, orderly nation, remarkable for its compulsory military service, state-planned economy, and punitive income tax rates. The hard-nosed, cynical, devout population of 178 million We like Potatoans 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 enormous, moralistic, socially-minded, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Spirituality, and Law & Order. The average income tax rate is 66.1%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The sizeable but underdeveloped We like Potatoan economy, worth 5.53 trillion Dollmbs a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is quite specialized, is dominated by the Trout Farming industry, with significant contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Furniture Restoration, and Woodchip Exports. Average income is 31,077 Dollmbs, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Schoolchildren are arrested for possessing sidewalk chalk without a permit, hammer and sickle-wielding space marines are such stuff that dreams are made on, aggressive promotion of global warming puts polar bears on thin ice, and illegal book-trafficking rings dominate the black market. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. We like Potato's national animal is the Cute fox, which can occasionally be seen sifting through garbage in the nation's cities.

We like Potato is ranked 311,530th in the world and 6th in Potato World for Largest Insurance Industry, scoring -10.1 on the Risk Expulsion Effectiveness Rating.
