The Rogue Nation of Puppet State 310 is a colossal, orderly nation, renowned for its state-planned economy, irreverence towards religion, and restrictive gun laws. The cynical population of 4.039 billion Puppet State 310ians are ruled without fear or favor by a psychotic dictator, who outlaws just about everything and refers to the populace as "my little playthings."

The large, moralistic, socially-minded, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Education, and Healthcare. The average income tax rate is 41.9%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The sizeable but stagnant Puppet State 310ian economy, worth 41.3 trillion dollars 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 slick, highly efficient, quite specialized black market in Trout Farming, Information Technology, Beef-Based Agriculture, and Retail. 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 10,217 dollars, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

A large-scale revitalization of the education system is underway, organ donation is compulsory, scientists regularly clone human beings for research purposes, and citizens are encouraged to report friends, family members or co-workers who seem depressed to the government for "counselling". Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Puppet State 310's national animal is the swan, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Puppet State 310 is ranked 232,437th in the world and 28th in Silly for Most Eco-Friendly Governments, scoring 167.43 on the Dolphin Recycling Awareness Index.
