The Precious Taters of Hobbitat is a gargantuan, safe nation, ruled by Toeless Bob with an even hand, and remarkable for its otherworldly petting zoo, infamous sell-swords, and multi-spousal wedding ceremonies. The hard-nosed, humorless population of 43.639 billion Hobbitots are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The relatively small, corrupt, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Education, Industry, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Nutbush City. Income tax is unheard of.

The frighteningly efficient Hobbitatian economy, worth an astonishing 21,520 trillion hairy toes a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing, Uranium Mining, and Retail. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an amazing 493,147 hairy toes, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Photographers can be found hiding behind the curtains in Toeless Bob's bedroom, a favorite "life hack" for gap year backpackers is to pretend to be homeless for government handouts, vast amounts of energy are expended moving water to hilltop lakes, and census workers struggle to account for the rapidly increasing number of citizens to tabulate. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Hobbitat's national animal is the lemming, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Hobbitat is ranked 1,005^th in the world and 3^rd in Antarctica for Safest, scoring 165.16 on the Bubble-Rapp Safety Rating.
