The Jingoistic States of The Entropy is a colossal, orderly nation, ruled by Daily Lotto Winner with an iron fist, and notable for its keen interest in outer space, smutty television, and stringent health and safety legislation. The hard-nosed, cynical population of 6.724 billion Entropyians 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, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Mr Happy's Funland. The average income tax rate is 39.8%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The large but underdeveloped Entropyian economy, worth 233 trillion hugs 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 large, well-organized black market in Tourism, Gambling, Uranium Mining, and Book Publishing. 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 34,784 hugs, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Trade policy consists of ganging up on the new guy, the most popular WhoTube videos are ones featuring parodies of iconic songs, you can't make an omelet without breaking a few legs, and for some reason the census focuses on daily banana ingestion and hourly quip rate. Crime, especially youth-related, is moderate. The Entropy's national animal is the llama, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Chaos.

The Entropy is ranked 239,734th in the world and 4,903rd in the South Pacific for Lowest Crime Rates, with 54.61 law-abiding acts per hour.
