The Socialist People's Republic of Picuros is a gargantuan, cultured nation, ruled by the CPP with a fair hand, and notable for its free-roaming dinosaurs, smutty television, and absence of drug laws. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful population of 11.018 billion Picurians are free to do what they want with their own bodies, and vote for whomever they like in elections; if they go into business, however, they are regulated to within an inch of their lives.

The large, liberal, socially-minded, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Environment. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Helsen. The income tax rate is 100%.

The frighteningly efficient Picurin economy, worth a remarkable 3,023 trillion florins a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is highly specialized, is mostly made up of the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism and Book Publishing. Average income is an amazing 274,445 florins, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Young children are learning advanced physics to scientifically disprove the existence of Santa Claus, diplomatic fallout tends to be much more dangerous than radioactive fallout, older citizens lament over the loss of law and order, and drills and shovels have been banned as the government cracks down on any means of fracking. Crime is totally unknown. Picuros's national animal is the lion, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is state atheism.

Picuros is ranked 999^th in the world and 25^th in The Communist Bloc for Highest Poor Incomes, with 245,772.18 Standard Monetary Units.
