The Federation of -Padasjoki- is a mammoth, cultured nation, renowned for its parental licensing program, frequent executions, and enslaved workforce. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless, devout population of 5.008 billion -Padasjoki-ians are ruled with an iron fist by the dictatorship government, which ensures that no-one outside the party gets too rich. In their personal lives, however, citizens are relatively unoppressed; it remains to be seen whether this is because the government genuinely cares about its people, or if it hasn't gotten around to stamping out civil rights yet.

The medium-sized, corrupt, well-organized government prioritizes Law & Order, although Defense, Administration, and Industry are also considered important. The average income tax rate is 55.7%.

The frighteningly efficient -Padasjoki-ian economy, worth 560 trillion gambles a year, is led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Information Technology, and Beef-Based Agriculture. Black market activity is frequent. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 111,899 gambles, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.1 times as much as the poorest.

Commuters travel in zigzags to avoid stalking accusations, frightened witnesses and seriously ill jurors wear the same handcuffs as the defendant, childhood friends of Leader are living it large abroad at the taxpayers' expense, and Harry Potter books are banned. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. -Padasjoki-'s national animal is the gamble, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

-Padasjoki- is ranked 24,682^nd in the world and 115^th in Municipalities of Finland for Largest Manufacturing Sector, scoring 30,094.6 on the Gooback-Jerbs Productivity Index.
