The Queen's State of At Work Puppet is a gargantuan, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by the Governor with an iron fist, and renowned for its state-planned economy, punitive income tax rates, and restrictive gun laws. The hard-working, cynical population of 37.943 billion At Work Puppetiers are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."

It is difficult to tell where the omnipresent, moralistic, well-organized government stops and the rest of society begins, but it juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Capital Heights. The average income tax rate is 88.6%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The strong At Work Puppetian economy, worth a remarkable 1,387 trillion betales a year, is driven almost entirely by government activity, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is extremely specialized, is mostly made up of the Beef-Based Agriculture industry, with significant contributions from Arms Manufacturing. State-owned companies are the norm. Average income is 36,576 betales, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.2 times as much as the poorest.

High-income earners pay a 100% tax rate, public loudspeakers constantly tell citizens they are "happy people", At Work Puppet has designated Capital Heights as its capital city, and the Governor has just been declared ruler of At Work Puppet in an international press conference. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. At Work Puppet's national animal is the deer, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

At Work Puppet is ranked 23,233^rd in the world and 6^th in State for Most Eco-Friendly Governments, scoring 3,065.07 on the Dolphin Recycling Awareness Index.
