The Kingdom of Pacifortania is a massive, safe nation, ruled by Andrew I with an even hand, and renowned for its pith helmet sales, national health service, and keen interest in outer space. The compassionate, democratic population of 1.211 billion Pacifortanians enjoy extensive civil freedoms, particularly in social issues, while business tends to be more regulated.

The large, liberal government juggles the competing demands of Education, Healthcare, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Auglin. The average income tax rate is 69.1%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Pacifortanian economy, worth 122 trillion Pacifortanian Marks a year, is fairly diversified and dominated by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Beef-Based Agriculture, and Cheese Exports. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 100,978 Pacifortanian Marks, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Torture is illegal, pallbearers at military funerals dive for cover when they hear the three-volley salute, houses and businesses are bulldozed to make way for ever-expanding cemeteries, and the men in trenchcoats hanging around playgrounds are actually police officers. Crime is totally unknown. Pacifortania's national animal is the Green Cheek Conure, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Pacifortania is ranked 8,857^th in the world and 251^st in the South Pacific for Nicest Citizens, with 35.51 average smiles per day.
