The Mansion of Doc Scratch is a gargantuan, safe nation, ruled by Doc Scratch with an iron fist, and remarkable for its deadly medical pandemics, digital currency, and complete lack of prisons. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless population of 26.094 billion Felts 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 enormous, corrupt, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Education, Industry, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of The Green Moon. The average income tax rate is 92.7%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Felt economy, worth a remarkable 3,069 trillion Greenbacks a year, is led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Beef-Based Agriculture, Tourism, and Automobile Manufacturing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 117,633 Greenbacks, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The government is funding experimental battery technology while the power grid continues to crumble, every workday begins with group therapy, a new religious movement claims that people's souls are stored in phosphorus, and hiding wrinkles with make-up is illegal. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Doc Scratch's national animal is the Troll, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Doc Scratch is ranked 2,999th in the world and 1st in Homestuck for Most Stationary, with 3,795.66423744 days.
