The Republic of Panzer Vor 238 is a massive, orderly nation, notable for its infamous sell-swords, zero percent divorce rate, and smutty television. The compassionate, cynical population of 2.04 billion Panzer Vor 238ians are ruled without fear or favor by a psychotic dictator, who outlaws just about everything and refers to the populace as "my little playthings."

The large, moralistic, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Defense, and Law & Order. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 56.9%.

The sizeable but inefficient Panzer Vor 238ian economy, worth 84.9 trillion Dollars a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is a slick, highly efficient, quite specialized black market in Trout Farming, Uranium Mining, Woodchip Exports, and Arms Manufacturing. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is 41,624 Dollars, with the richest citizens earning 6.1 times as much as the poorest.

The dartboard at the Panzer Vor 238ian Cancer Research Charity bears a picture of Leader's face, the men in trenchcoats hanging around playgrounds are actually police officers, fewer people are bathing as citizens must show ration stamps before they can turn on their faucets, and Merry Birthday is a popular protest song despite the risk of fines and royalty dues. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Panzer Vor 238's national animal is the Lion, which can occasionally be seen sifting through garbage in the nation's cities.

Panzer Vor 238 is ranked 101,132^nd in the world and 2,052^nd in Suspicious for Highest Foreign Aid Spending, scoring 223.12 on the Clooney Contribution Index.
