The Federal Republic of Panckes is a small, socially progressive nation, renowned for its barren, inhospitable landscape and irreverence towards religion. The hard-working, democratic population of 23 million Panckesians hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.
The tiny, liberal, outspoken government prioritizes Welfare, with Education, Healthcare, and Defense also on the agenda, while Spirituality and Environment are ignored. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 6.3%.
The strong Panckesian economy, worth 1.46 trillion bitcoins a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is broadly diversified and led by the Gambling industry, with major contributions from Pizza Delivery, Uranium Mining, and Furniture Restoration. Average income is 63,342 bitcoins, with the richest citizens earning 7.0 times as much as the poorest.
The country's famous rainforests are being bulldozed by the mining industry. Crime is moderate, probably because of the absence of a police force. Panckes's national animal is the sheep, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.
Panckes is ranked 170,271st in the world and 270th in The Black Hawks for Most Advanced Public Education, scoring 1,044.34 on the Edu-tellignce® Test Score.
