The Imperial State of Piikala is a gargantuan, safe nation, ruled by 太陽神 with an even hand, and renowned for its pith helmet sales, national health service, and restrictive gun laws. The compassionate, humorless population of 12.885 billion サンの人々 are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The large, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of 帝国の本拠地. The average income tax rate is 98.1%.

The frighteningly efficient 太陽の人々 economy, worth a remarkable 2,664 trillion ピカラン円s a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is quite specialized, is led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Arms Manufacturing, and Beef-Based Agriculture. Average income is an amazing 206,803 ピカラン円s, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Cops in 帝国の本拠地 spend much of their time napping on a park bench next to Embassy Row, the government regularly hires contractors to construct high rise apartments, every spring railroad foundations erode to reveal human remains, and the government snoops on private internet connections. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Piikala's national animal is the ハワイの鷹, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is 神道.

Piikala is ranked 10,891^st in the world and 1^st in Hawaii Island for Nicest Citizens, with 31.57 average smiles per day.
