The Pirates of The Floodcity is a gargantuan, safe nation, ruled by Hr Puffin Stuff with an even hand, and notable for its keen interest in outer space. Its compassionate population of 20.88 billion 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.

It is difficult to tell where the omnipresent government stops and the rest of society begins, but it is mainly concerned with Education, although Law & Order and Public Transport are secondary priorities. It meets every day to discuss matters of state in the capital city of West End. The average income tax rate is 100%. The private sector is almost wholly made up of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, although the government is looking at stamping this out.

Students cut up leftover oggie boogies during Arts and Crafts, anti-government web sites are springing up, businesses are forced to bring all work back within the nation's borders, and young children are regularly seen wagering pocket money at blackjack tables. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. The Floodcity's national animal is the Iron Dog, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, its national religion is Fellowship of the Mighty Lords, and its currency is the oggie boogie.

The Floodcity is ranked 7th in Lazarus and 118th in the world for Most Influential, scoring 410 on the Soft Power Disbursement Rating.
