The Republic of Paappapapa is a huge, genial nation, notable for its infamous sell-swords, daily referendums, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, democratic, devout population of 223 million Paappapapans hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.

The medium-sized, liberal government juggles the competing demands of Education, Welfare, and Industry. The average income tax rate is 40.9%.

The powerhouse Paappapapan economy, worth 18.1 trillion Dollars a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Book Publishing, Automobile Manufacturing, and Information Technology. Average income is 81,144 Dollars, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 4.7 times as much as the poorest.

Park rangers perform full-body searches on suspected fungus smugglers, the amount welfare recipients spend on fertilizer has exploded, large sections of Paappapapa have been named national reserves to protect the native tribes living there, and for just a few extra Dollars Paappapapans can get new driving records with their new cars. Crime is totally unknown. Paappapapa's national animal is the Nothing, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Paappapapa is ranked 13,672^nd in the world and 359^th in the South Pacific for Largest Publishing Industry, scoring 10,901.57 on the Bella Potter Productivity e-Index.
