Strongbadia (also spelled Strong Badia) is the field behind the dumpster that is ruled over by Strong Bad. He introduced his monarchy in "i rule". In "colonization", he tells the story of how it was founded (which took place around the time that the wireless web and energy drinks were invented) when Strong Bad started renting the land from Bubs so he could put ketchup on his eggs. As seen in email "other days", Strong Bad gives Strongbadia a firm scrubbing every Thursday.
Citizens of Strongbadia include Strong Bad, Strong Mad, The Cheat, the Tire, the Stop Sign, General Tso's Chicken, Strong Bad's Tandy 400, and the Cinderblock. However, the official population of Strongbadia, as recorded on the Stop Sign, is "Tire." Since the tire is inanimate, Strongbadia is completly devoid of any permanent flora or fauna. In the email "2 years", it was revealed that two years after the email was released, September 2005, the population will have tripled to also include a Bundt Cake pan and Coach Z (taking a leak). The Cheat will also have painted a mural on the fence, reading "FIReWORKS or die," and there will be a world-class hole. However, none of these events ever came to pass.
The Stop Sign and the Cinderblock serve as an unfinished monument to Strongbadia's monarch.
Strongbadia also has its own local news.
As seen in the email "little questions", Strongbadia is, or at some point was, on very good economic and political terms with Sweden (perhaps even to the point of an alliance).
In the email "flag day", Strong Bad sings the Strongbadia National Anthem and the flag of Strongbadia is first shown. This anthem later appears on Strong Bad Sings and Other Type Hits.
In 2004, Homestar attempted to conquer Strongbadia via his Homestarmy, which at the time consisted of himself, Strong Sad, Homsar, The Painting of a guy with a big knife, and a popcorn maker named Frank Bennedetto. Homestar made the mistake, however of trying to recruit Strong Bad, giving Strongbadia plenty of warning of the impending invasion. Though Strong Bad was outnumbered almost 2 to 1, Homestar agreed to cancel the invasion because Strong Bad and Strong Mad were playing Badminton. The only casualty was Bennedetto, who was seriously wounded and even considered dead after sustaining severe kick trauma.
