The Democratic Republic of Pinenses is a gargantuan, genial nation, ruled by Redcats with an even hand, and renowned for its museums and concert halls, anti-smoking policies, and complete lack of prisons. The compassionate, democratic, devout population of 10.909 billion Pinenseses are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The enormous, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Healthcare, Education, and Environment. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Pinus Superanum. The average income tax rate is 80.5%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The all-consuming Pinenses economy, worth a remarkable 1,107 trillion Genovinoes 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 Book Publishing industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Information Technology, and Furniture Restoration. Average income is an impressive 101,557 Genovinoes, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Evidence-based arguments can be arrestable offenses, the aphorism "there's no need to argue" has been dismissed by Pinenseses, school guidance counselors recommend monastic vows as an alternative to higher education, and the government loves seeing the little people fight. Crime is totally unknown. Pinenses's national animal is the Quokka, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is The Big Pine.

Pinenses is ranked 6,398^th in the world and 127^th in Europe for Safest, scoring 127.53 on the Bubble-Rapp Safety Rating.
