The Hellhole of Fudgedup is a colossal, efficient nation, ruled by Chairman Jake Mao Paul with an even hand, and remarkable for its lack of airports, avowedly heterosexual populace, and frequent executions. The hard-nosed, hard-working, humorless, devout population of 9.977 billion Fudgedupians are either ruled by a sleek, efficient government or a conglomerate of multinational corporations; it's difficult to tell which.

The minute, corrupt, pro-business government, or what there is of one, prioritizes Spirituality, with Industry also on the agenda, while Environment and Welfare are ignored. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Slumtown. Income tax is unheard of.

The frighteningly efficient Fudgedupian economy, worth a remarkable 3,944 trillion cheques a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is led by the Gambling industry, with major contributions from Retail, Uranium Mining, and Soda Sales. Average income is an amazing 395,386 cheques, but there is a vast disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 3,703,231 per year while the poor average 3,558, a ratio of 1,040 to 1.

Slavers view "what did your last slave die of" as a request for a demonstration, a commonwealth of equal nations recognises that Fudgedup is a bit more equal than the others, the best doughnut stores have been taken over by foreign police officers, and Pinkerton agents are called in to forcibly break up white collar strikes. Crime, especially youth-related, is so common that it is unusual to encounter someone following the law, perhaps because of the country's complete lack of prisons. Fudgedup's national animal is the Landwhale, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to heavy metals seepage into national waterways.

Fudgedup is ranked 154,038^th in the world and 15^th in The Graveyard for Most Extensive Civil Rights, with 42.38 Martin Luther King, Jr. Units.
