The Federal Republic of Pacific Collition is a colossal, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Prime Minister Blair Morgan with an even hand, and renowned for its smutty television and national health service. The compassionate population of 2.54 billion Pacific Collitionians 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 relatively small government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Welfare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Seattle. The average income tax rate is 18.9%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The large but inefficient Pacific Collitionian economy, worth 132 trillion Shells a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Furniture Restoration, and Retail. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 52,109 Shells, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.6 times as much as the poorest.

Pacific Collitionians are regularly fired for looking at MyFace during their lunch breaks, the acceptance of acupuncture and other alternative therapies has needled the scientific community, fashion magazine covers finally display realistic body images following photo-manipulation becoming illegal, and it is illegal to make racist remarks in public. Crime, especially youth-related, is almost non-existent. Pacific Collition's national animal is the Osprey, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is The Civic Faith.

Pacific Collition is ranked 221,963^rd in the world and 416^th in Starlight for Highest Average Tax Rates, with 18.87 Effective Tax Rate.
