The Neo-Terran Republic of Pentaga Giudici is a colossal, efficient nation, ruled by Vigor with an even hand, and renowned for its pith helmet sales, punitive income tax rates, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, democratic population of 6.919 billion Pentaga Giudicians have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The enormous government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Education, and Welfare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Liberia. The average income tax rate is 72.0%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The thriving Pentaga Giudician economy, worth 567 trillion Terran Credits a year, is led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Beef-Based Agriculture, and Information Technology. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 82,025 Terran Credits, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The nation's orphanages and maternity wards have been nicknamed 'the Killbot Factories', rural communities are all but disenfranchised as politicians focus all their attention on winning the deciding urban votes, the mining industry has taken a hit from tighter environmental regulations, and bombs are permitted on planes for the 'security of the passengers'. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Pentaga Giudici's national animal is the Orphan, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Pentaga Giudici is ranked 69,752^nd in the world and 3,297^th in Lazarus for Most Cultured, scoring 66 on the Snufflebottom-Wiggendum Pentatonic Scale.
