The Flatulent Bleatings of Pompous Windbags is a gargantuan, orderly nation, ruled by Lord Maximilian III with an iron fist, and renowned for its deadly medical pandemics, free-roaming dinosaurs, and frequent executions. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless, devout population of 42.93 billion Windbags are ruled with an iron fist by the corrupt, dictatorship government, which oppresses anyone who isn't on the board of a Fortune 500 company. Large corporations tend to be above the law, and use their financial clout to gain ever-increasing government benefits at the expense of the poor and unemployed.

The relatively small, corrupt, moralistic, pro-business, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Mintaka. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 57.2%.

The frighteningly efficient Pompous Windbagsian economy, worth an astonishing 14,487 trillion bones a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Uranium Mining, Automobile Manufacturing, and Retail. Average income is an amazing 337,461 bones, but there is a vast disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 2,589,007 per year while the poor average 11,864, a ratio of 218 to 1.

The police crack down on tax evaders without mercy, no personal detail is too tiny for the suede-denim census police, political activists are routinely executed, and citizens seem fixated on 105m x 45m rectangles. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force. Pompous Windbags's national animal is the kestrel, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to toxic air pollution, and its national religion is Christianity.

Pompous Windbags is ranked 45,664^th in the world and 7^th in Free States of Gaia for Most Subsidized Industry, scoring 4,228.85 on the Gilded Widget Scale.
