The Federation of Puswurg is a colossal, efficient nation, ruled by Noel Ponzi with an iron fist, and remarkable for its pith helmet sales, compulsory military service, and stringent health and safety legislation. The hard-nosed, cynical population of 2.873 billion Puswurgians 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 government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Administration, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Okseherde. The average income tax rate is 48.9%.

The powerhouse Puswurgian economy, worth 207 trillion Puwurias a year, is quite specialized and led by the Trout Farming industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Basket Weaving, and Arms Manufacturing. Black market activity is extensive. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 72,352 Puwurias, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 4.1 times as much as the poorest.

Flipping a coin to make a decision leads to a referral to Gambling Addiction Services, high-tech infantry rifles automatically reload when the soldier shoots outside the screen of their helmet HUD, Bigtopian relations have become a minefield, and employees are told they can avoid traffic jams by starting work at 4 AM. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Puswurg's national animal is the Eagle, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Christianity.

Puswurg is ranked 267,482^nd in the world and 8^th in Nova Iris for Most Cultured, scoring 60 on the Snufflebottom-Wiggendum Pentatonic Scale.
