Overview • Policies • People • Government • Economy • Rank • Trend • Cards

The Republic of Pepoland is a massive, genial nation, notable for its smutty television, devotion to social welfare, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate population of 2.453 billion Pepolandians have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The enormous government juggles the competing demands of Healthcare, Law & Order, and Education. The average income tax rate is 65.3%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The strong Pepolandian economy, worth 130 trillion dollars a year, is quite specialized and led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing, Automobile Manufacturing, and Uranium Mining. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 53,359 dollars, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The state considers itself the 'third parent' of every child in the nation, robosexual marriages are increasingly common, telling someone to 'break a leg' is considered a criminal inducement to self harm, and angry citizens complain that there isn't enough geographical diversity on the new banknotes. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Pepoland's national animal is the beaver, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Pepoland is ranked 53,344^th in the world and 1,150^th in the South Pacific for Most Scientifically Advanced, scoring 139.9 on the Kurzweil Singularity Index.
