The Federation of Plazland is a gargantuan, cultured nation, ruled by President Kazimir with an even hand, and notable for its soft-spoken computers, enslaved workforce, and prohibition of alcohol. The hard-nosed, humorless population of 13.731 billion Plajians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The large, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Education, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Łomnik. The average income tax rate is 98.6%.

The frighteningly efficient Plajan economy, worth a remarkable 3,397 trillion Oriental Rubles a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is broadly diversified, is led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Arms Manufacturing and Tourism. Average income is an amazing 247,464 Oriental Rubles, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.1 times as much as the poorest.

A PhD just ain't what it used to be, acrimonious legal battles result during divorce proceedings, reflection is vital for badly behaved politicians, and the law says that all Plajians are created equal — no matter how they were created. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Plazland's national animal is the Oriental Lion, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Oriental Orthodox.

Plazland is ranked 2,415^th in the world and 62^nd in The East Pacific for Lowest Crime Rates, with 136.79 law-abiding acts per hour.
