The Dominion of Pumpkin-Spice Islands is a gargantuan, socially progressive nation, notable for its barren, inhospitable landscape, compulsory military service, and spontaneously combusting cars. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic, devout population of 19.446 billion Pumpkin-Spice Islanders enjoy some of the most opulent lifestyles in the region, unless they are unemployed or working-class, in which case they are variously starving to death or crippled by easily preventable diseases.

The relatively small, pro-business government is primarily concerned with Spirituality, with Defense, Law & Order, and Education also on the agenda, while International Aid receives no funds. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 9.7%.

The very strong Pumpkin-Spice Islands economy, worth a remarkable 1,270 trillion crowns a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Woodchip Exports industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Uranium Mining, and Automobile Manufacturing. Average income is 65,345 crowns, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 236,304 per year while the poor average 12,895, a ratio of 18.3 to 1.

Voting is voluntary, the latest Harry Potter book is a bestseller, Animal Liberationists are regularly jailed, and the mining industry is making inroads into environmentally sensitive areas. Crime is moderate, with the police force struggling against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. Pumpkin-Spice Islands's national animal is the pumpkin, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Pumpkin-Spice Islands is ranked 245,895^th in the world and 3^rd in Octobris for Lowest Crime Rates, with 53.26 law-abiding acts per hour.
