The Forested Republic of Edible Plywood is a gargantuan, genial nation, ruled by Leader with an even hand, and notable for its ban on automobiles, strictly enforced bedtime, and daily referendums. The compassionate, humorless population of 24.086 billion Plywoodians have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The large government prioritizes Environment, although Education, Healthcare, and Law & Order are also considered important. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Dorito City. The average income tax rate is 98.0%.

The thriving Plywoodian economy, worth a remarkable 3,065 trillion credits a year, is driven almost entirely by government activity, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector is mostly comprised of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, although the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is an impressive 127,263 credits, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Studio executives abandon tragic stories of star-crossed lovers because "it's been done", statues of famous citizens are erected or demolished on a purely partisan basis, the aims of top-secret Plywoodian science projects revolve around designing the perfect robot woman, and Leader can finally stop kneading the dough and start rolling in it instead. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Edible Plywood's national animal is the harvest mouse, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Edible Plywood is ranked 139,247^th in the world and 134^th in Forest for Most Corrupt Governments, with 4.47 kickbacks per hour.
