The Dictatorship of Outsider Land is a gargantuan, efficient nation, renowned for its parental licensing program, smutty television, and keen interest in outer space. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless population of 18.328 billion Outsider Landians 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 medium-sized, corrupt, socially-minded, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Industry. The average income tax rate is 95.1%.

The frighteningly efficient Outsider Landian economy, worth a remarkable 4,301 trillion Bytes a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is fairly diversified, is dominated by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Beef-Based Agriculture, Arms Manufacturing, and Tourism. Average income is an amazing 234,719 Bytes, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Citizens are deployed to barren deserts to protect small territorial claims, every workday begins with group therapy, hundreds of subterranean tunnels are being built as part of "Project Morlock", and the national census includes an opt-in to join the government-run dating service. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Outsider Land's national animal is the Mouse, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Outsider Land is ranked 8,869th in the world and 499th in Lazarus for Largest Publishing Industry, scoring 13,877.68 on the Bella Potter Productivity e-Index.
