The Democratic Republic of Penanegaraga is a huge, efficient nation, remarkable for its barren, inhospitable landscape, compulsory military service, and irreverence towards religion. The hard-working population of 294 million Penanegaragans are either ruled by a sleek, efficient government or a conglomerate of multinational corporations; it's difficult to tell which.

The relatively small government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Education, and Industry. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 8.1%.

The thriving Penanegaragan economy, worth 19.9 trillion Nergabucks a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Gambling industry, with major contributions from Uranium Mining, Basket Weaving, and Information Technology. Average income is 67,652 Nergabucks, but there is a large disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 278,734 per year while the poor average 10,812, a ratio of 25.8 to 1.

Washing-up liquid looks and smells like baby poo, seasonal hay-fever sufferers are attending government drug counselling sessions to get free doughnuts, the nation's politicians are known more for the internet memes they spawn than any of their accomplishments, and children searching for cat videos must watch dogs in equal proportion. Crime is a problem, with the police force struggling against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. Penanegaraga's national animal is the tiger, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Penanegaraga is ranked 8,621^st in the world and 1^st in NATO for Largest Gambling Industry, scoring 9,195.13 on the Kelly Criterion Productivity Index.
