The Federal Republic of Portolovia is a massive, safe nation, ruled by Serenathe Megumi with an even hand, and renowned for its rum-swilling pirates, daily referendums, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, cheerful population of 4.823 billion Portolovs 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 enormous government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Napolizatseul. The average income tax rate is 89.7%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Portolovic economy, worth 544 trillion Portolov Yen a year, is led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Beef-Based Agriculture. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an impressive 112,816 Portolov Yen, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.8 times as much as the poorest.

There's a literal nanny state for the legions of children taken by social services, glamping Portolovs won't sleep in a tent that doesn't include a Jacuzzi, metal detectors have been banned after a bottle cap caused a riot at the beach, and the nation has nearly as many history museums as Portolovs. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Portolovia's national animal is the Weed Smelling Praying Mantis, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Secular State.

Portolovia is ranked 16,831^st in the world and 442^nd in the South Pacific for Largest Publishing Industry, scoring 9,669.95 on the Bella Potter Productivity e-Index.
