The Matriarchy of PlanetPunk

“I don't give a funk”

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

The Matriarchy of PlanetPunk is a gargantuan, genial nation, ruled by Dark Lord with an even hand, and remarkable for its lack of airports, absence of drug laws, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful population of 12.72 billion Punkers enjoy extensive civil rights and enjoy a level of social equality free from the usual accompanying government corruption.

The medium-sized, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Education, Healthcare, and Environment. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Punkium. The average income tax rate is 79.7%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient PlanetPunkian economy, worth a remarkable 2,370 trillion Bonks a year, is highly specialized and mostly made up of the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 186,326 Bonks, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Cars speed down national highways while drivers sleep at the wheel, companies have begun running campaigns to stop people from remembering their brand name, internet ads promising "hot singles in your area" are even less accurate than they used to be, and the Treasury has been accused of flushing money down the toilet. Crime is totally unknown. PlanetPunk's national animal is the Slug, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Deitydenial.

PlanetPunk is ranked 265,134^th in the world and 11,419^th in The North Pacific for Largest Gambling Industry, scoring -34.37 on the Kelly Criterion Productivity Index.
