The Federation of PoppySeeds is a gargantuan, socially progressive nation, remarkable for its barren, inhospitable landscape, irreverence towards religion, and suspicion of poets. The quiet, industrious population of 19.568 billion PoppySeedsians 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, Law & Order, and Defense. The average income tax rate is 24.2%.

The large but inefficient PoppySeedsian economy, worth 786 trillion Yen a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Basket Weaving industry, with major contributions from Retail, Arms Manufacturing, and Book Publishing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 40,188 Yen, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.8 times as much as the poorest.

The government extracts trade concessions from poor nations in exchange for humanitarian aid, PoppySeeds's children are widely acknowledged as the most foul-mouthed in the region, private law firms are unheard of, and parents are held criminally responsible for their children's crimes. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. PoppySeeds's national animal is the Tiger, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

PoppySeeds is ranked 41,491st in the world and 17th in HC Metalurg for Most Stationary, with 1,074.98078423408 days.
