The Rogue Pirate Nation of Porky Pig is a gargantuan, safe nation, ruled by Porky Pig with an iron fist, and notable for its compulsory military service, infamous sell-swords, and pith helmet sales. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, devout population of 13.803 billion Porky Pigs are ruled with an iron fist by the corrupt, dictatorship government, which oppresses anyone who isn't on the board of a Fortune 500 company. Large corporations tend to be above the law, and use their financial clout to gain ever-increasing government benefits at the expense of the poor and unemployed.

The medium-sized, corrupt, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Administration, and Defense. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Shakin' Bacon. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 23.3%.

The very strong Porky Pig economy, worth a remarkable 1,164 trillion bitcoins a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Beef-Based Agriculture, Arms Manufacturing, and Cheese Exports. Average income is 84,343 bitcoins, with the richest citizens earning 6.4 times as much as the poorest.

Military strategists are questioning the wisdom of subsidizing the economies of sworn enemies, Shakin' Bacon's iconic yellow taxis are nowhere to be seen, it takes a village to catch a criminal, and sales of trenchcoats are on the rise. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Porky Pig's national animal is the Daffy Duck, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Pigs On The Wing.

Porky Pig is ranked 114,451st in the world and 65th in Equilism for Safest, scoring 76.21 on the Bubble-Rapp Safety Rating.
