The Community of Sklobdt is a massive, socially progressive nation, remarkable for its irreverence towards religion, punitive income tax rates, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate population of 1.264 billion Sklobdtians enjoy extensive civil rights and enjoy a level of social equality free from the usual accompanying government corruption.

The enormous, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Education, Welfare, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Galab. The average income tax rate is 77.3%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The Sklobdtian economy, worth 71.7 trillion Lobs a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is quite specialized, is dominated by the Trout Farming industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing, Furniture Restoration, and Basket Weaving. Average income is 56,739 Lobs, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Trade policy consists of ganging up on the new guy, old folks reminisce about the last time someone was acquitted of a crime, the government has declined to declare any particular religion as its 'official' one, and one of the most popular models in Sklobdt has a scarred face and one working eye. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Sklobdt's national animal is the Diplodocus, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Sklobdt is ranked 25,872^nd in the world and 578^th in The Communist Bloc for Highest Food Quality, scoring 91.1 on the Meeshlin-Starr Index.
