The Emoticons of Smiley Bob is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by Danielle with a fair hand, and renowned for its aversion to nipples, free-roaming dinosaurs, and hatred of cheese. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful population of 39.574 billion Smilers are free to do what they want with their own bodies, and vote for whomever they like in elections; if they go into business, however, they are regulated to within an inch of their lives.

The government — a sprawling, bureaucracy-choked, liberal, outspoken morass — juggles the competing demands of Environment, Education, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Avengers Tower. The income tax rate is 100%.

The frighteningly efficient Smiley economy, worth an astonishing 12,554 trillion pikas a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is extremely specialized, is mostly made up of the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing. Average income is an amazing 317,236 pikas, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

All tribal children are set for life with guaranteed government jobs, companies struggle to cover for the hordes of employees on parental leave, the latest national park is visited by more sharks than people, and the well-to-do in Hollow Point are never on time for important appointments. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Smiley Bob's national animal is the dragon, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is a tie.

Smiley Bob is ranked 34^th in the world and 1^st in Hollow Point for Most Eco-Friendly Governments, scoring 45,721.09 on the Dolphin Recycling Awareness Index.
