The Pacifican Tanks of 51st Tank Battalion is a colossal, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Ender with an even hand, and renowned for its public floggings, compulsory military service, and stringent health and safety legislation. The cynical population of 9.886 billion 51st Tank Battalionians have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The medium-sized government prioritizes Education, although Defense, Public Transport, and Welfare are also considered important, while Spirituality isn't funded at all. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Francograd. The average income tax rate is 26.6%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The strong 51st Tank Battalionian economy, worth 641 trillion AP Shells a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Arms Manufacturing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 64,845 AP Shells, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.5 times as much as the poorest.

Photographers can be found hiding behind the curtains in Ender's bedroom, a PhD just ain't what it used to be, the education system is being cleansed of all corporate influence, and weathermen are being arrested for attempting to read the future. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. 51st Tank Battalion's national animal is the Tank, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is The Order.

51st Tank Battalion is ranked 46,543^rd in the world and 12^th in Resuscitation for Largest Populations, with 9.89 billion capita.
