The Sovereign Marquisate of Pinicada is a gargantuan, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Marquês de Pinicada José II Gonzal with an even hand, and renowned for its multi-spousal wedding ceremonies, national health service, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate population of 10.444 billion Pinicadas enjoy extensive civil freedoms, particularly in social issues, while business tends to be more regulated.

The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Environment. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Penico. The average income tax rate is 67.5%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Pinicada economy, worth a remarkable 1,553 trillion Malteses a year, is quite specialized and led by the Book Publishing industry, with major contributions from Information Technology and Tourism. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an impressive 148,718 Malteses, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.0 times as much as the poorest.

Racehorses move a lot slower these days, bug burgers are extra crunchy, getting milk from the local corner store no longer requires donning advanced hiking gear, and citizens praise the weeds that overwhelm their narrow vegetable realm. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Pinicada's national animal is the Bonia, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Pinicada is ranked 65,871^st in the world and 3^rd in The Great Monarchical Nations for Most Extensive Civil Rights, with 72.44 Martin Luther King, Jr. Units.
