The Principality of Pichtonia is a gargantuan, cultured nation, ruled by Me with an even hand, and remarkable for its complete lack of prisons, daily referendums, and punitive income tax rates. The devout population of 10.597 billion Pichtos enjoy extensive civil freedoms, particularly in social issues, while business tends to be more regulated.
The enormous government juggles the competing demands of Welfare, Education, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Pridetown. The average income tax rate is 71.9%, and even higher for the wealthy.
The large but inefficient Pichto economy, worth 383 trillion Peanuts a year, is quite specialized and led by the Cheese Exports industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Pizza Delivery, and Retail. Average income is 36,158 Peanuts, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.
Tuxedo rental companies are inexplicably going out of business, government crews work tirelessly to retake the suburbs from organized packs of raccoons, occupational wage levels are based on a crumpled napkin authored by a legendary Pridetown bus driver, and Pichtos incessantly needle their doctors for relief. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Pichtonia's national animal is the Fairy, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Brewdaism.
Pichtonia is ranked 60,471st in the world and 355th in Europeia for Most Advanced Public Transport, scoring 1,100.13 on the Societal Mobility Rating.
