The Morally Questionable People of Flibblers is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by The Oppressive Mighty One with an iron fist, and remarkable for its strictly enforced bedtime, prohibition of alcohol, and stringent health and safety legislation. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless population of 39.074 billion Flibblibians 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, moralistic, socially-minded, well-organized government prioritizes Defense, with Education, Administration, and Healthcare also on the agenda, while Spirituality is ignored. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Flibble Central. The income tax rate is 100%.

The frighteningly efficient Flibbliblian economy, worth an astonishing 42,189 trillion Flaabens a year, is fairly diversified and mostly comprised of black market activity, especially in Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, Uranium Mining, and Beef-Based Agriculture. State-owned companies are common. Average income is a breathtaking 1,079,736 Flaabens, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The police have been swamped with requests to stay up past bedtime, twins move across the country to avoid being accused of the other's crimes, the Foreign Ministry thinks an eye for an eye is a blindingly good idea, and members of the government all have oddly similar anecdotes about their childhoods. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Flibblers's national animal is the Flibbitybobble, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Flibblers is ranked 631st in the world and 2nd in Antarctica for Largest Timber Woodchipping Industry, scoring 23,860.02 on the Tasmanian Pulp Environmental Export Index.
