The Prime Minister EQPL of PenguinPies is a gargantuan, orderly nation, ruled by Empress Queen Princess Lady of TSP with an iron fist, and remarkable for its public floggings, rampant corporate plagiarism, and stringent health and safety legislation. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless, devout population of 15.063 billion PenguinPiesians are ruled without fear or favor by a psychotic dictator, who outlaws just about everything and refers to the populace as "my little playthings."

The large, corrupt, socially-minded, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Education, Environment, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of PenguinPies City. The average income tax rate is 80.7%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The PenguinPiesian economy, worth a remarkable 1,241 trillion Oreos a year, is driven almost entirely by government activity, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is an enormous, deeply entrenched, broadly diversified black market in Cheese Exports. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is 82,401 Oreos, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.2 times as much as the poorest.

Main battle tanks stalk the woods of PenguinPies in search of Hippos, hundreds of sailors ride the good ship Empress Queen Princess Lady Of TSP day after day, young children are learning advanced physics to scientifically disprove the existence of Santa Claus, and any body part that can be cut off a person is no longer considered to be their property. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. PenguinPies's national animal is the Hippo, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is PIE.

PenguinPies is ranked 29,611^th in the world and 858^th in the South Pacific for Most Valuable International Artwork, with 5.95 Bank.
