The Republic of Pinnipled is a colossal, socially progressive nation, ruled by Dylan Connors with an even hand, and renowned for its irreverence towards religion, absence of drug laws, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate population of 7.947 billion Pinnipledians enjoy extensive civil rights and enjoy a level of social equality free from the usual accompanying government corruption.

The large government juggles the competing demands of Education, Healthcare, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Pireshedia. The average income tax rate is 88.9%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Pinnipledian economy, worth a remarkable 1,065 trillion Dolrals a year, is highly specialized and dominated by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism and Book Publishing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 134,045 Dolrals, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Children's daycare starts at the crack of dawn, the Pireshedia Film Festival recently voted 'Pinnipledian Getting Hit By Football' as best film, history textbook pages are used as impromptu tissues by distraught students, and sections of the police receive paramilitary training. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Pinnipled's national animal is the Tortoise, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Pinnipled is ranked 8,683^rd in the world and 5^th in Britannia Prima for Lowest Crime Rates, with 103.79 law-abiding acts per hour.
