The Democratic Republic of Pengnia is a gargantuan, safe nation, ruled by Pengil with a fair hand, and renowned for its museums and concert halls, free-roaming dinosaurs, and public floggings. The democratic population of 13.252 billion Pengnians love a good election, and the government gives them plenty of them. Universities tend to be full of students debating the merits of various civil and political rights, while businesses are tightly regulated and the wealthy viewed with suspicion.
It is difficult to tell where the omnipresent, socially-minded government stops and the rest of society begins, but it juggles the competing demands of Healthcare, Education, and Environment. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Penguitia. The average income tax rate is 81.0%, and even higher for the wealthy.
The strong Pengnian economy, worth 635 trillion Pengs a year, is driven almost entirely by government activity. The industrial sector, which is highly specialized, is mostly made up of the Book Publishing industry, with major contributions from Basket Weaving and Cheese Exports. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 47,970 Pengs, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.
Grade school teachers mark homework with red "CITATION NEEDED" stamps, doctors prescribe videos of political debates to patients with insomnia, soldiers' positions are given away by the glint of their bayonets, and vital intelligence-gathering activities are put on hold as agents return home for seduction training and advanced poker instruction. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Pengnia's national animal is the Penguin, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans.
Pengnia is ranked 20,743rd in the world and 508th in The East Pacific for Most Cultured, scoring 90 on the Snufflebottom-Wiggendum Pentatonic Scale.
