The Empire of Loopydoo is a huge, safe nation, remarkable for its compulsory military service, devotion to social welfare, and stringent health and safety legislation. The hard-nosed, hard-working population of 425 million Loopydooans have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Education, Defense, and Welfare. The average income tax rate is 22.4%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The very strong Loopydooan economy, worth 33.3 trillion dollarydoos a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, and Basket Weaving. Average income is 78,434 dollarydoos, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.6 times as much as the poorest.

The homeless more often beg for mercy than money, prisons are filled with the cackles and sobs of a deranged inmate population, the arms industry is backed by government subsidies and harsh anti-protest laws are in place, and on-call doctors who check their pagers during movies are banned from cinemas for life. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. Loopydoo's national animal is the Loopypup, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Loopydoo is ranked 124,189th in the world and 53rd in Kerbals of the North for Safest, scoring 71.34 on the Bubble-Rapp Safety Rating.
