The Queen's State of Pocorontas is a gargantuan, socially progressive nation, notable for its complete lack of public education, complete absence of social welfare, and spontaneously combusting cars. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic population of 27.954 billion Pocorontasians live in a state of perpetual fear, as a complete breakdown of social order has led to the rise of order through biker gangs.

There is no government in the normal sense of the word; however, a small group of community-minded, liberal, pro-business, outspoken individuals keep a keen eye out for any attempt to organize such a thing, and ruthlessly crush it. Income tax is unheard of.

The strong Pocorontasian economy, worth 834 trillion betales a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is quite specialized and led by the Gambling industry, with significant contributions from Basket Weaving, Woodchip Exports, and Information Technology. Average income is 29,838 betales, but there is a vast disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 202,868 per year while the poor average 1,603, a ratio of 126 to 1.

Voting is voluntary, Pocorontas's children are widely acknowledged as the most foul-mouthed in the region, the alarmingly racist TV show 'Bigtopians Say the Darndest Things' is a hit, and the streets are increasingly clogged with poverty-stricken beggars. Crime is a major problem, probably because of the absence of a police force. Pocorontas's national animal is the deer, which can occasionally be seen sifting through garbage in the nation's cities.

Pocorontas is ranked 289,454^th in the world and 15^th in Michigan for Lowest Crime Rates, with 33.16 law-abiding acts per hour.
