The Principality of Pacquiao is a huge, cultured nation, notable for its ban on automobiles, fear of technology, and ritual sacrifices. The hard-nosed population of 244 million Pacquioi are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The medium-sized, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Education, Welfare, and Healthcare. The average income tax rate is 25.6%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The sizeable but inefficient Pacquiaoan economy, worth 12.0 trillion Euros a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Soda Sales industry, with major contributions from Woodchip Exports, Gambling, and Cheese Exports. Black market activity is frequent. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 49,355 Euros, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The government has cut its subsidies for all special interest groups, the nation's police officers are famously miserable-looking, crime is on the rise as DNA sampling has been all but outlawed, and the nation is famous for having one of the world's largest Fire Ant hunting institutions. Crime is relatively low. Pacquiao's national animal is the Fire Ant.

Pacquiao is ranked 69,314^th in the world and 3^rd in The Pacquiao Freedom Consortium for Most Pacifist, with 92.63 cheeks turned per day.
