The Aspiring Arcadians of Pygania is a gargantuan, cultured nation, ruled by Daryush J Trayast with a fair hand, and remarkable for its museums and concert halls, keen interest in outer space, and daily referendums. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic, humorless population of 13.359 billion Pyganians enjoy extensive civil freedoms, particularly in social issues, while business tends to be more regulated.

The medium-sized, corrupt, liberal government juggles the competing demands of Industry, Defense, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Anquas. The average income tax rate is 98.7%.

The frighteningly efficient Pyganian economy, worth a remarkable 6,338 trillion vrigs a year, is broadly diversified and mostly comprised of black market activity, especially in Arms Manufacturing, Retail, Information Technology, and Soda Sales. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an amazing 474,469 vrigs, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.5 times as much as the poorest.

Government officials are phoning up good-looking celebrities to say they want to breed with them, politicians have tenure, class action lawsuits have gone up in smoke thanks to government interference, and new "Commiserations! It's An Accident!" greetings cards for expectant mothers are selling surprisingly quickly. Crime, especially youth-related, is all-pervasive, perhaps because of the country's complete lack of prisons. Pygania's national animal is the boar, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its national religion is Zoroastrianism.

Pygania is ranked 687^th in the world and 1^st in India for Most Corrupt Governments, with 561.91 kickbacks per hour.
