The United Republic of Porg Easka is a gargantuan, pleasant nation, ruled by Sir President with an even hand, and notable for its barren, inhospitable landscape, ritual sacrifices, and public floggings. The hard-nosed, cynical, devout population of 10.54 billion Porg Easkans have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.
The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Porg Easka City. The average income tax rate is 44.7%, but much higher for the wealthy.
The strong Porg Easkan economy, worth 719 trillion francs a year, is led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Uranium Mining, Information Technology, and Woodchip Exports. Black market activity is frequent. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 68,287 francs, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.6 times as much as the poorest.
Coffee cups have grown in size to accommodate the huge ingredients list, the nationalised Arms Manufacturing Industry is not interested in making weapons, anyone who sneezes at border crossings is turned away, and builders spend more time negotiating "tasteful architecture" than on actual construction. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Porg Easka's national animal is the porg, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.
Porg Easka is ranked 200,956th in the world and 25th in Keep of Darkness XL for Most Stationary, with 46.2285120804 days.
