The Borderlands of Boom Boom Ville is a massive, orderly nation, ruled by Killy McKillerson with an iron fist, and remarkable for its public floggings, ban on automobiles, and suspicion of poets. The hard-nosed, cynical, devout population of 1.631 billion Boom Boom Villeans 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, corrupt, moralistic, socially-minded, well-organized government is primarily concerned with Defense, although Law & Order, Healthcare, and Administration are also considered important. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Death Town. The average income tax rate is 77.0%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The sizeable but underdeveloped Boom Boom Villean economy, worth 90.1 trillion Souls 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, highly specialized black market in Arms Manufacturing, Trout Farming, 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 55,223 Souls, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.0 times as much as the poorest.

Justice is blinding, serial killers are the country's biggest import, convicts released after being found "wrongfully imprisoned" are surprisingly chill about the whole thing, and the stratosphere is full of "silent but deadly" attacks from Killy McKillerson's rear echelons. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Boom Boom Ville's national animal is the Racoon, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is The Glorious Boomism.

Boom Boom Ville is ranked 50,492nd in the world and 28th in Blue Ridge for Most Primitive, scoring 54.49 on the Scary Big Number Scale.
