The Free Land of Protectistan is a gargantuan, cultured nation, renowned for its complete lack of prisons, absence of drug laws, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate, democratic population of 10.276 billion Protectistanis enjoy extensive civil freedoms, particularly in social issues, while business tends to be more regulated.

The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Education, Healthcare, and Industry. The average income tax rate is 52.1%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Protectistani economy, worth a remarkable 1,320 trillion dogecoins a year, is quite specialized and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Retail. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 128,532 dogecoins, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Anti-government political posters adorn every building like wallpaper, chalkboards are replaced with billboards in the classroom, the nation's generous tax credits have brought all the film studios to the yard, and the government regrets to say that it is forced to make cuts to citizens. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Protectistan's national animal is the tiger, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Protectistan is ranked 204,518^th in the world and 6,831^st in Lazarus for Most Cheerful Citizens, with 49.5 Percentage Of Water Glasses Perceived Half-Full.
