The Empire of Packlandia is a massive, safe nation, ruled by Me with an iron fist, and remarkable for its frequent executions, sprawling nuclear power plants, and ubiquitous missile silos. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless population of 3.238 billion Packlandians are ruled by a mostly-benevolent dictator, who grants the populace the freedom to live their own lives but watches carefully for anyone to slip up.
The medium-sized, corrupt, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Slotherland. The average income tax rate is 75.1%.
The frighteningly efficient Packlandian economy, worth 672 trillion Cadlyns a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Tourism, and Uranium Mining. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an amazing 207,742 Cadlyns, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.5 times as much as the poorest.
Atheistic refugees haven't got a prayer of being granted asylum, Renaissance frescos are being chiselled off public walls, excessive wheelchair ramps on government buildings have been compared to theme park attractions, and conscripts often volunteer for a second tour of duty so they can get a ticket to next year's Army Revue. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Packlandia's national animal is the Sloth, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Troutism.
Packlandia is ranked 31,098th in the world and 17th in Palatine for Safest, scoring 108.56 on the Bubble-Rapp Safety Rating.
