The People's Republic of Pasadamia is a massive, safe nation, ruled by Tamati Frañsez with an even hand, and renowned for its national health service, devotion to social welfare, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate population of 2.54 billion subjects are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The enormous, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Healthcare, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of St Hothensburg. The average income tax rate is 94.2%.

The frighteningly efficient Pasadamian economy, worth 293 trillion dimes a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is highly specialized, is mostly made up of the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Information Technology. Average income is an impressive 115,661 dimes, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The public health bureaucracy is wrapped in miles of red tape, the leading national news source is 'my cousin Billy-Bob on MyFace', adverts proclaim it has to be healthy if the Mornay uses hand-grated Gallopavian Gruyère, and future forecasters fearfully discuss grey goo and human obsolescence. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Pasadamia's national animal is the Seagull, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Atheism.

Pasadamia is ranked 206,382^nd in the world and 227^th in The Free Nations Region for Largest Publishing Industry, scoring -3.13 on the Bella Potter Productivity e-Index.
