The Democratic Socialist of Happiville is a mammoth, efficient nation, ruled by Council of the Idiots with an even hand, and remarkable for its free-roaming dinosaurs, irreverence towards religion, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate population of 8.817 billion Gays are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The enormous government juggles the competing demands of Education, Welfare, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Goofball One. The average income tax rate is 90.1%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The powerhouse Gay economy, worth 820 trillion Joys a year, is highly specialized and mostly made up of the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 93,033 Joys, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Political parties are banned from advertising and receiving private donations, divorce lawyers are found begging on the streets, swings are now more popular than see-saws in children's playgrounds, and the combined alert sound of a nation simultaneously receiving a text message is a common cause of hearing damage. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Happiville's national animal is the Penguin, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans, and its national religion is Public Library of Infinite Knowledge.

Happiville is ranked 323,570th in the world and 108th in Conch Kingdom for Largest Manufacturing Sector, scoring zero on the Gooback-Jerbs Productivity Index.
