The Drillers of Drummers Drumming is a colossal, orderly nation, ruled by Basher with an iron fist, and notable for its disturbing lack of elderly people, public floggings, and daily referendums. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless, devout population of 7.537 billion Drummers Drummingians are ruled by a mostly-benevolent dictator, who grants the populace the freedom to live their own lives but watches carefully for anyone to slip up.

The medium-sized, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Snaresville. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 53.9%.

The frighteningly efficient Drummers Drummingian economy, worth 933 trillion Snares a year, is fairly diversified and dominated by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Beef-Based Agriculture, and Furniture Restoration. Black market activity is rampant. Average income is an impressive 123,857 Snares, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 456,952 per year while the poor average 23,689, a ratio of 19.3 to 1.

Local officials love to claim the protection of their Big Brother, the nation's soldiers often believe they're in the Air Force, the beauty of coastal towns is marred only slightly by all the closed-down storefronts, and sex changes are routinely performed at Drummers Drumming's hospitals. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Drummers Drumming's national animal is the Brown Bear, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Percussionism.
