The Republic of The 300th puppet is a massive, environmentally stunning nation, renowned for its ban on automobiles, absence of drug laws, and compulsory gun ownership. The hard-nosed, cynical, devout population of 4.489 billion 300th puppetians 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, moralistic, socially-minded government prioritizes Defense, with Industry, Law & Order, and Administration also on the agenda, while Welfare receives no funds. The average income tax rate is 71.2%, and even higher for the wealthy.
The frighteningly efficient 300th puppetian economy, worth 467 trillion Three Hundred Rials 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 a slick, highly efficient, quite specialized black market in Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, Tourism, 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 impressive 104,202 Three Hundred Rials, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.4 times as much as the poorest.
All industry is owned and run by the government, more than one company makes the board game Monopoly, thrift shops are closing their doors, and a large-scale revitalization of the education system is underway. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. The 300th puppet's national animal is the Three Hundred Frogs, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.
The 300th puppet is ranked 48,202nd in the world and 150th in The Funian Puppet Region for Most Conservative, scoring 77.08 on the Bush-Santorum Dawning Terror Index.
