The United States of Peous Doplets is a gargantuan, cultured nation, ruled by El Presidente with an iron fist, and renowned for its rum-swilling pirates, smutty television, and sprawling nuclear power plants. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless population of 11.347 billion Peous Dopletsians are ruled without fear or favor by a psychotic dictator, who outlaws just about everything and refers to the populace as "my little playthings."
The enormous, corrupt, well-organized government prioritizes Administration, with Industry, Defense, and Law & Order also on the agenda. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Halia. The average income tax rate is 79.4%, and even higher for the wealthy.
The frighteningly efficient Peous Dopletsian economy, worth a remarkable 1,816 trillion pounds a year, is quite specialized and mostly comprised of black market activity, especially in Uranium Mining, Arms Manufacturing, Retail, and Woodchip Exports. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an impressive 160,122 pounds, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.
It's a comma comma comma comma comma rebellion, TV coverage of music festivals consists mostly of backstage interviews, carrots are orange, apples are red and food waste is increasing, and the realistic depiction of tentacles is on the core syllabus of most art schools. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Peous Doplets's national animal is the parrot, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to toxic air pollution, and its national religion is Yala.
Peous Doplets is ranked 309,889th in the world and 4,988th in The North Pacific for Largest Automobile Manufacturing Sector, scoring -9.49 on the Henry Ford Productivity Index.
