The Free Flowing Individuals of Pinguthazar is a massive, efficient nation, ruled by The Supremely Snookered Sort of Chap with an even hand, and remarkable for its sprawling nuclear power plants, absence of drug laws, and stringent health and safety legislation. The hard-nosed population of 1.664 billion Pinguinis 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 relatively small government prioritizes Education, with Environment, Industry, and Administration also on the agenda, while Spirituality and International Aid are ignored. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Grand Pinguville. The average income tax rate is 25.4%.

The frighteningly efficient Pinguinist economy, worth 193 trillion Feathers 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 an impressive 116,217 Feathers, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 4.2 times as much as the poorest.

Trade policy consists of ganging up on the new guy, dozens of additional foreign policy specialists have been sent to the country's WA Mission, Pinguthazar's free colleges struggle to maintain standards in the face of overwhelming demand, and death row inmates cower in fear at the phrase "one-year anniversary". Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Pinguthazar's national animal is the Penguin, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans, and its national religion is Holy Shiitism.

Pinguthazar is ranked 69,085th in the world and 3,847th in Lazarus for Most Subsidized Industry, scoring 2,751.28 on the Gilded Widget Scale.
