The Hellhole of Fudgedup is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by Chairman Jake Mao Paul with an even hand, and notable for its barren, inhospitable landscape, lack of airports, and flagrant waste-dumping. The hard-nosed, hard-working, humorless, devout population of 18.41 billion Fudgedupians are either ruled by a sleek, efficient government or a conglomerate of multinational corporations; it's difficult to tell which.

The minute, corrupt, pro-business government, or what there is of one, prioritizes Spirituality, with Industry also on the agenda, while Environment and Law & Order are ignored. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Slumtown. Income tax is unheard of.

The frighteningly efficient Fudgedupian economy, worth a remarkable 8,349 trillion cheques a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is led by the Gambling industry, with major contributions from Retail, Uranium Mining, and Soda Sales. Average income is an amazing 453,532 cheques, but there is a vast disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 3,471,549 per year while the poor average 16,095, a ratio of 215 to 1.

Citizens are encouraged to show displeasure with politicians by poking them with sharp metal sticks, vehicle strikes into low bridges are on the increase, Fudgedup is suspiciously populated compared to its neighbors, and the first sword of Fudgedup does not run. Crime, especially youth-related, is so common that it is unusual to encounter someone following the law, perhaps because of the country's complete lack of prisons. Fudgedup's national animal is the Landwhale, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Fudgedup is ranked 384th in the world and 1st in The Graveyard for Largest Insurance Industry, scoring 15,361.46 on the Risk Expulsion Effectiveness Rating.
