The Hard Workers of Shreks People is a massive, efficient nation, ruled by Shrek's Voice with an iron fist, and renowned for its otherworldly petting zoo, ritual sacrifices, and irreverence towards religion. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless population of 1.986 billion Shreks are ruled by a mostly-benevolent dictator, who grants the populace the freedom to live their own lives but watches carefully for anyone to slip up.

The medium-sized, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Administration, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Shrek's Swamp. The average income tax rate is 55.4%.

The frighteningly efficient Shrekese economy, worth 327 trillion Ogre-coins a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, and Retail. Black market activity is frequent. Average income is an impressive 164,837 Ogre-coins, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 4.8 times as much as the poorest.

Phone taps are frequently carried out by the police, the government's foreign policy statements are less threatening than a World Assembly cease-and-desist letter, billions of Ogre-coins are spent to take high-quality photos of the Donkey Nebula, and the military maintains a fierce arsenal of 'Cure Missiles'. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Shreks People's national animal is the Donkey, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Shrekism.

Shreks People is ranked 225,469^th in the world and 11,310^th in The North Pacific for Fattest Citizens, with 8.75 Obesity Rate.
