The Republic of Energized Puppet 4 is a massive, environmentally stunning nation, renowned for its state-planned economy, national health service, and keen interest in outer space. The compassionate, cynical population of 4.045 billion NRGIZEDS 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 large, corrupt, socially-minded, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Industry. The average income tax rate is 72.1%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The all-consuming Energized Puppet 4ian economy, worth 390 trillion NRGS 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 a large, well-organized, quite specialized black market in Arms Manufacturing, Beef-Based Agriculture, Information Technology, and Tourism. 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 96,624 NRGS, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Only 'organics' are permitted to be citizens, conductors wield diamond-encrusted batons to fit in with their freshly gilded surroundings, virtual assistants are seen with increasing suspicion every time they get an upgrade, and East Lebatuckese astronauts' favorite game during downtime on the Multinational Space Station is 'I Spy'. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Energized Puppet 4's national animal is the NRG DRINK, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Energized Puppet 4 is ranked 56,454^th in the world and 446^th in Artificial Solar System for Most Advanced Public Transport, scoring 1,356.17 on the Societal Mobility Rating.
