The Holy Empire of Stoopy is a huge, environmentally stunning nation, renowned for its avowedly heterosexual populace, pith helmet sales, and punitive income tax rates. The hard-nosed, cynical population of 438 million Stoopyians are ruled with an iron fist by the dictatorship government, which ensures that no-one outside the party gets too rich. In their personal lives, however, citizens are relatively unoppressed; it remains to be seen whether this is because the government genuinely cares about its people, or if it hasn't gotten around to stamping out civil rights yet.

The large, corrupt, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Law & Order, and Defense. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of St Moo Deng. The average income tax rate is 66.3%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The strong Stoopyian economy, worth 28.2 trillion Primos a year, is quite specialized and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Door-to-door Insurance Sales, and Uranium Mining. Black market activity is frequent. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 64,292 Primos, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Bronze and marble supplies are running low as sculptors depict full-figured subjects, foreign nations kill migratory animals at random in the hope that Stoopy will pay them to stop, cheese lovers have a case of the bleus, and it is illegal for police officers to carry out searches due to strict privacy laws. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Stoopy's national animal is the Hippos, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Stoopy is ranked 35,126th in the world and 164th in Europe for Largest Insurance Industry, scoring 4,499.72 on the Risk Expulsion Effectiveness Rating.
