The Very 1999 Christmas of Of the Tyrannical Frogs is a colossal, orderly nation, ruled by Schlanta Claus with an iron fist, and renowned for its sprawling nuclear power plants, aversion to nipples, and smutty television. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless, devout population of 6.266 billion Frogsians are ruled without fear or favor by a psychotic dictator, who outlaws just about everything and refers to the populace as "my little playthings."

The large, corrupt, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of San Edmundo. The average income tax rate is 91.2%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Frogsian economy, worth a remarkable 1,281 trillion Aureuses a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is an enormous, deeply entrenched, quite specialized black market in Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, and Uranium Mining. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is an amazing 204,513 Aureuses, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.4 times as much as the poorest.

Government adverts say that twelve lashes a day keeps divine wrath at bay, engine room hooch is the drink of choice among the nation's navy, blind students are at a disadvantage now that test papers printed in braille have been discontinued, and it is impossible to get any work done as auditors swarm every inch of government factories and mines. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Of the Tyrannical Frogs's national animal is the Wedge-Tailed Eagle, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to toxic air pollution, and its national religion is Piracy.

Of the Tyrannical Frogs is ranked 8,120^th in the world and 266^th in The North Pacific for Most Patriotic, with 73.17 flags saluted per person per day.
