The Pebbsi of Of the Tyrannical Frogs is a colossal, efficient nation, ruled by Six Grains of Gravel Mountains Abound with an iron fist, and notable for its ban on automobiles, frequent executions, and state-planned economy. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless, devout population of 5.035 billion Frogsians are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."

The large, corrupt, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of 12th Council Pillar House of Braids. The average income tax rate is 87.4%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Frogsian economy, worth 960 trillion Areuses 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 an enormous, deeply entrenched black market in Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, Uranium Mining, and Woodchip Exports. 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 an impressive 190,858 Areuses, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.1 times as much as the poorest.

Former first wives now find themselves mothers to twenty children, photographers have to apply for a license to photograph Six Grains of Gravel Mountains Abound, Moby Dick can only be sold by pornographers, and the revelation that people were sexist in the past is apparently front page news. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Of the Tyrannical Frogs's national animal is the Broad-winged Hawk, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to toxic air pollution, and its national religion is Pebbsi.

Of the Tyrannical Frogs is ranked 272,524th in the world and 6,041st in The North Pacific for Safest, scoring 6.99 on the Bubble-Rapp Safety Rating.
