The Suppressed squirrels of Klopswurst is a gargantuan, socially progressive nation, ruled by fairy king amne with an iron fist, and notable for its irreverence towards religion, punitive income tax rates, and devotion to social welfare. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless population of 43.367 billion worthless Klopswurstians are ruled with an iron fist by the dictatorship government, which ensures that no-one outside the party gets too rich. In their personal lives, however, citizens are relatively unoppressed; it remains to be seen whether this is because the government genuinely cares about its people, or if it hasn't gotten around to stamping out civil rights yet.

The large, corrupt, socially-minded, well-organized government prioritizes Education, although Environment, Healthcare, and Industry are also considered important, while Spirituality and Defense receive no funds. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Blutwurst. The average income tax rate is 82.5%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Klopswurstian economy, worth a remarkable 8,716 trillion golden Klops a year, is highly specialized and mostly comprised of black market activity, especially in Information Technology, Soda Sales, and Book Publishing. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an amazing 201,000 golden Klops, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The canal flows through the land like a twisty turny thing, the urban poor thumbs down the new hitchhiking ban, mums always ask their three-year-olds for permission before hugging them, and the government decides its policies by observing the flight of birds. Crime, especially youth-related, is all-pervasive, with the police force struggling against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. Klopswurst's national animal is the Schnitzeltier, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is obedience.

Klopswurst is ranked 7,268th in the world and 1st in Milky Way Galaxy for Most Scientifically Advanced, scoring 480.82 on the Kurzweil Singularity Index.
