The Flamboyance of Toad Hall is a gargantuan, cultured nation, ruled by Alastair Toad with a fair hand, and renowned for its multi-spousal wedding ceremonies, smutty television, and irreverence towards religion. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic population of 10.823 billion Toads live in a state of perpetual fear, as a complete breakdown of social order has led to the rise of order through biker gangs.

The relatively small, corrupt, pro-business, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Industry, Education, and Defense. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Family Seat of Toad Hall. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 15.3%.

The frighteningly efficient Toad economy, worth a remarkable 2,067 trillion motor parts a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Retail industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Arms Manufacturing, and Book Publishing. Black market activity is notable. Average income is an impressive 190,989 motor parts, but there is a vast disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 1,359,274 per year while the poor average 8,868, a ratio of 153 to 1.

Parents are always up to speed on the latest childcare techniques, cars speed down national highways while drivers sleep at the wheel, everybody's got wood thanks to Alastair Toad, and satellite images show safe electoral constituencies in complete darkness. Crime, especially youth-related, is pervasive, perhaps because of the country's complete lack of prisons. Toad Hall's national animal is the Toad, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its national religion is Indulging One's Every Whim.

Toad Hall is ranked 159,982nd in the world and 6th in Hundred Acre Wood for Most Stationary, with 126.15337065068 days.
