The Royal Dominion States of Palinon is a colossal, cultured nation, ruled by Zhan MacVinney with an iron fist, and renowned for its museums and concert halls, zero percent divorce rate, and ubiquitous missile silos. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical population of 4.21 billion Verskan are ruled by a mostly-benevolent dictator, who grants the populace the freedom to live their own lives but watches carefully for anyone to slip up.
The large, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Administration, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Mavlio. The average income tax rate is 71.1%, and even higher for the wealthy.
The frighteningly efficient Verskaian economy, worth 559 trillion pounds a year, is broadly diversified and dominated by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Retail, Beef-Based Agriculture, and Basket Weaving. Black market activity is extensive. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 132,803 pounds, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.5 times as much as the poorest.
Chekhov's guns are killing the entertainment budget, hockey players who drop their gloves discard them on abandoned baseball mitts, police spend all their time investigating officer on officer fender benders, and the government throws money at problems when in a jam. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Palinon's national animal is the Beaver, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its national religion is Spawn Anchor.
Palinon is ranked 25,109th in the world and 1,194th in Balder for Highest Poor Incomes, with 82,369.23 Standard Monetary Units.
