The Grand Reverential Supremedom of Ponan is a colossal, socially progressive nation, ruled by Johannes Tricious Enchara Phionem with a fair hand, and renowned for its multi-spousal wedding ceremonies, sprawling nuclear power plants, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, hard-working, democratic, cheerful, devout population of 7.941 billion Ponians enjoy extensive civil freedoms, particularly in social issues, while business tends to be more regulated.

The enormous, liberal government juggles the competing demands of Education, Environment, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Ponan Metroprima. The average income tax rate is 96.4%.

The frighteningly efficient Ponanian economy, worth a remarkable 1,048 trillion Ponczes a year, is highly specialized and led by the Book Publishing industry, with major contributions from Information Technology and Tourism. Average income is an impressive 132,048 Ponczes, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Small children are learning a lot of new words from a teacher with Tourette Syndrome, scientists earn more grant money for reproducing old experiments than trying anything new, the aims of top-secret Ponanian science projects revolve around designing the perfect robot woman, and prison reforms have replaced communal luaus with communal loos. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Ponan's national animal is the Omnipotent and Omniscient Tadpole, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Phaniphatrianism.

Ponan is ranked 5,617^th in the world and 5^th in Philippines for Safest, scoring 129.46 on the Bubble-Rapp Safety Rating.
