The Disputed Territories of New Palcotil is a massive, environmentally stunning nation, remarkable for its pith helmet sales, compulsory military service, and punitive income tax rates. The devout population of 4.827 billion New Palcotilians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The government — a sprawling, bureaucracy-choked, socially-minded morass — juggles the competing demands of Healthcare, Environment, and Defense. The average income tax rate is 74.1%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The New Palcotilian economy, worth 179 trillion Korniats a year, is quite specialized and led by the Furniture Restoration industry, with significant contributions from Tourism and Gambling. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 37,249 Korniats, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

It is mandatory to learn evolution in schools, dozens of viewers go online to hear whether a comma has been added to Clause 5 in Subsection B of Law 58375, the nation's "surprisingly chill" military is renowned for its horrendous war crimes, and drill sergeants yell in the ears of bespectacled nerds in cybermilitary "reboot camps". Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. New Palcotil's national animal is the Mossy Forest Deer, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

New Palcotil is ranked 164,045th in the world and 3,778th in the Rejected Realms for Most Primitive, scoring -56.83 on the Scary Big Number Scale.
