The Commonwealth of Pianolandia is a massive, socially progressive nation, ruled by Chopin with an even hand, and notable for its daily referendums, absence of drug laws, and complete absence of social welfare. The hard-nosed, hard-working population of 2.314 billion Pianists are either ruled by a sleek, efficient government or a conglomerate of multinational corporations; it's difficult to tell which.

The tiny government juggles the competing demands of Industry, Healthcare, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Pianoville. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 4.2%.

The frighteningly efficient Pianolandian economy, worth 276 trillion Notes a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Gambling, Tourism, and Retail. Average income is an impressive 119,681 Notes, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 343,143 per year while the poor average 33,211, a ratio of 10.3 to 1.

Vacationing hippies and old ladies are regularly arrested for bringing back contraband basketry, artificial intelligences seeking exciting work are overcome with ennui, Chopin can often be found attempting to coax random citizens' cats down from trees, and it is customary to begin the summer with a fasting ritual in which people eat nothing but kumquat smoothies. Crime, especially youth-related, is pervasive, with the police force struggling against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. Pianolandia's national animal is the Three-legged Piano, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Pianism.

Pianolandia is ranked 12,687^th in the world and 3^rd in Geopolity for Most Armed, with 6.99 Weapons Per Person.
