The Holy Empire of Imperium Paneum is a huge, safe nation, remarkable for its ban on automobiles, frequent executions, and exploding hoverboards. The hard-nosed, hard-working, devout population of 453 million Holy Communists are free to succeed or fail in life on their own merits; the successful tend to enjoy an opulent (but moralistic) lifestyle, while the failures can be seen crowding out most jails.
The medium-sized, pro-business government prioritizes Spirituality, although Administration, Law & Order, and Defense are also considered important, while Industry and Social Policy aren't funded at all. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 25.7%.
The very strong Imperium Paneumian economy, worth 26.0 trillion Psomis a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Furniture Restoration industry, with major contributions from Door-to-door Insurance Sales, Information Technology, and Arms Manufacturing. Average income is 57,488 Psomis, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 201,359 per year while the poor average 11,917, a ratio of 16.9 to 1.
Strict term limits have been applied to all elected offices, the doctor has cold hands, cars have been banned, and invasive species are hunted by the gendarmerie. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Imperium Paneum's national animal is the Unicorn.
Imperium Paneum is ranked 243,225th in the world and 10,673rd in Lazarus for Largest Basket Weaving Sector, scoring -3.13 on the Hickory Productivity Index.
