The Almighty Falangist Kingdom of Pabtlau is a mammoth, safe nation, ruled by Philip with an even hand, and notable for its museums and concert halls, keen interest in outer space, and irreverence towards religion. The compassionate population of 8.376 billion Pabtlauans 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 large government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Pabtlau City. The average income tax rate is 90.3%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Pabtlauan economy, worth a remarkable 1,243 trillion Pautans a year, is led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Retail. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 148,426 Pautans, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Visitors often wonder about the new red dartboard in Philip's office, buses are widely regarded as the safest way to travel, bin lorries have replaced birds as the source of the dawn chorus, and minor code style errors dull the house edge. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Pabtlau's national animal is the Ox, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Christianity.

Pabtlau is ranked 163,921^st in the world and 1,792^nd in the South Pacific for Largest Manufacturing Sector, scoring 7,564.9 on the Gooback-Jerbs Productivity Index.
