The Modern Major-General of Picairn is a colossal, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Emperor Menellia I with a fair hand, and notable for its keen interest in outer space, complete lack of prisons, and irreverence towards religion. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful population of 9.202 billion Picairnians are free to do what they want with their own bodies, and vote for whomever they like in elections; if they go into business, however, they are regulated to within an inch of their lives.
The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Stormridge. The average income tax rate is 98.2%.
The frighteningly efficient Picairnian economy, worth a remarkable 2,367 trillion Dollars a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing, Tourism, and Arms Manufacturing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an amazing 257,291 Dollars, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.
Billions of Dollars are spent to take high-quality photos of the Phoenix Nebula, intellectual snobbery has the cognoscenti sneering at anyone who doesn't have an opinion on the semiological drift of Umberto Eco's works, sniffer dogs check train passengers for body odour, and citizens are bleary-eyed after staying up all night with a good book (Picairn has found 4 easter eggs). Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. Picairn's national animal is the Phoenix, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Secularism.
Picairn is ranked 8,267th in the world and 273rd in The North Pacific for Most Patriotic, with 68.08 flags saluted per person per day.
