The Plutonian Empire of Pluto moons is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by King Leo Hammerstein Pluto III with an iron fist, and remarkable for its anti-smoking policies, enslaved workforce, and suspicion of poets. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless population of 23.512 billion Plutonians are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."

The large, corrupt, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Grand Hammerstein City. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 82.9%.

The frighteningly efficient Pluto moonsian economy, worth a remarkable 2,767 trillion Pleats a year, is broadly diversified and dominated by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Woodchip Exports, and Uranium Mining. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 117,692 Pleats, with the richest citizens earning 6.3 times as much as the poorest.

UFO sightings are listed daily in the morning news, the hit new medical TV show "Home" prominently features the brand of painkiller the lead doctor is addicted to, those who cut young children are told to cut it out, and little girls are in tears as King Leo Hammerstein Pluto III confiscates their pink princess ballgowns. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Pluto moons's national animal is the Plutonian Eagle, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to toxic air pollution.

Pluto moons is ranked 283,069th in the world and 8th in Scarif for Most Cultured, scoring 48 on the Snufflebottom-Wiggendum Pentatonic Scale.
