The Republic of Panem-Capitol is a gargantuan, orderly nation, remarkable for its burgeoning bird of paradise population. The hard-nosed, cynical population of 16.996 billion Panem-Capitolians 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 relatively small, moralistic, socially-minded, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Welfare, and Healthcare. The average income tax rate is 19.0%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The large but underdeveloped Panem-Capitolian economy, worth 507 trillion Coins a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Trout Farming industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Automobile Manufacturing, and Furniture Restoration. Black market activity is notable. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 29,834 Coins, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Crime is well under control, despite the fact that it is difficult to make it through a day without breaking one of the country's many laws. Panem-Capitol's national animal is the bird of paradise, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Panem-Capitol is ranked 156,743^rd in the world and 2^nd in New Phoenix for Largest Insurance Industry, scoring 538.06 on the Risk Expulsion Effectiveness Rating.
