The Federal Republic of Pantsville is a massive, efficient nation, ruled by Liam Apello with a fair hand, and remarkable for its daily referendums, otherworldly petting zoo, and free-roaming dinosaurs. The compassionate, hard-working, democratic, cheerful population of 1.654 billion Pantsvilleans hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.

The medium-sized, liberal, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Industry, Education, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Panapolis. The average income tax rate is 67.7%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Pantsvillean economy, worth 218 trillion Faluts a year, is led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Retail, and Book Publishing. Average income is an impressive 132,291 Faluts, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Prisoners have been known to host cooking and home décor television shows, an aboriginal talking stick is used for leaders' debates at election time, the nation has an international reputation for compassion, and sentient AIs face their watery graves with a fixed smile. Crime is totally unknown. Pantsville's national animal is the Underweight Dolphin, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans.

Pantsville is ranked 184,890^th in the world and 173^rd in Lands End for Largest Pizza Delivery Sector, scoring -3.3 on the Pepperoni Propulsion Productivity Index.
