The Armed Republic of Puppet State 332 is a colossal, safe nation, notable for its irreverence towards religion and suspicion of poets. The democratic population of 4.25 billion Puppet State 332ians enjoy a sensible mix of personal and economic freedoms, while the political process is open and the people's right to vote held sacrosanct.

The relatively small, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Administration, and Healthcare. The average income tax rate is 10.6%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The large but inefficient Puppet State 332ian economy, worth 150 trillion marks a year, is led by the Door-to-door Insurance Sales industry, with major contributions from Woodchip Exports, Gambling, and Beef-Based Agriculture. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 35,330 marks, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.4 times as much as the poorest.

The government awards prizes to television shows featuring stereotype-breaking minority roles, citizens are barcoded to keep track of their movements, scientists regularly clone human beings for research purposes, and only the brainiest citizens become academics. Crime is well under control. Puppet State 332's national animal is the parrot, which can occasionally be seen dodging aircraft in the nation's cities.

Puppet State 332 is ranked 66,409th in the world and 17th in Silly for Largest Gambling Industry, scoring 3,711.24 on the Kelly Criterion Productivity Index.
