The Federal Monarchy of Pekares is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by Queen Alba II with an even hand, and remarkable for its zero percent divorce rate, punitive income tax rates, and complete absence of social welfare. The hard-nosed, humorless, devout population of 15.535 billion Pekaresians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

It is difficult to tell where the omnipresent government stops and the rest of society begins, but it juggles the competing demands of Environment, Healthcare, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Poshep. The average income tax rate is 76.0%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Pekaresian economy, worth 906 trillion Peks a year, is driven almost entirely by government activity. The industrial sector is solely comprised of the Soda Sales industry. Average income is 58,345 Peks, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

It's considered providence that the political lexicon contains a syrup of company slogans, bars are packed at all hours, the institution of marriage is held sacred and strictly enforced, and visitors to Self-Sufficiency National Park who ask for trail maps are handed a pen and a blank sheet of paper. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Pekares's national animal is the Sheep, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Catholicism.

Pekares is ranked 152,601st in the world and 3rd in The Great Experiment for Most Primitive, scoring -50.68 on the Scary Big Number Scale.
