The Royal Independent State of Panay Islands and Guimaras is a massive, safe nation, ruled by PM Jorge Santoro Lagumbay with an even hand, and notable for its zero percent divorce rate, keen interest in outer space, and public floggings. The compassionate, devout population of 1.316 billion Panayenses are prohibited from doing almost everything except voting, which they do timidly and conservatively.

The large, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Law & Order, and Education. The average income tax rate is 81.5%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Panaynon economy, worth 169 trillion pesos a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Arms Manufacturing, and Basket Weaving. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 128,941 pesos, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Standing on a chair to reach a top shelf is seen as evidence of narcissistic personality disorder, authorities are looking for a stool pigeon to rat out who is stealing food from pigeon toilets, children have lost interest in toy guns in favor of toy meth lab kits, and the government seems embarrassed to be seen governing. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Panay Islands and Guimaras's national animal is the carabao, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Catholicism.

Panay Islands and Guimaras is ranked 284,318^th in the world and 183^rd in Nordic Lands for Largest Black Market, with 33.9 billion Standard Monetary Units.
