The People's Republic of Pragmatic is a huge, orderly nation, renowned for its aversion to nipples, zero percent divorce rate, and punitive income tax rates. The cynical population of 471 million Pragmaticians are ruled without fear or favor by a psychotic dictator, who outlaws just about everything and refers to the populace as "my little playthings."

The large, moralistic, socially-minded, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Education. The average income tax rate is 55.7%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The very strong Pragmatician economy, worth 31.2 trillion Юндавs a year, is led by the Trout Farming industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Arms Manufacturing, and Automobile Manufacturing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 66,167 Юндавs, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The fishing lobby has stemmed the tide of environmental regulations, Pragmatician husbands are dead good at fathering kids, the military is slashing spending on conventional arms and diverting it to spending on prosthetic arms, and citizens are strongly encouraged to breathe less so as to limit the carbon footprint. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Pragmatic's national animal is the Волк.

Pragmatic is ranked 233,753rd in the world and 659th in The Communist Bloc for Largest Gambling Industry, scoring -4.69 on the Kelly Criterion Productivity Index.
