The Kingdom of Greater Penguinia is a huge, efficient nation, ruled by King Adél I DuPingouin with an even hand, and notable for its rum-swilling pirates, keen interest in outer space, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, hard-working, democratic, cheerful, devout population of 976 million Penguinians have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The large government juggles the competing demands of Industry, Administration, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Frostbergh. The average income tax rate is 74.1%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Penguinese economy, worth 110 trillion Penguinian Dollars a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Book Publishing, and Basket Weaving. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an impressive 113,255 Penguinian Dollars, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The government has begun selling heroin and ecstasy to help fund its projects, unemployed political consultants and advertisers spend every election night weeping for the good old days, the seventh son of a seventh son is fated to be a millionaire, and modelling agencies send their clients to work in nursing homes. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Greater Penguinia's national animal is the Emperor Penguin, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans.

Greater Penguinia is ranked 19,700^th in the world and 13^th in Anteria for Most Subsidized Industry, scoring 7,200.63 on the Gilded Widget Scale.
