The People's Republic of Pajonia is a colossal, genial nation, ruled by the Proletariat with an even hand, and renowned for its museums and concert halls, soft-spoken computers, and national health service. The compassionate, democratic population of 5.315 billion Pajonians enjoy extensive civil rights and enjoy a level of social equality free from the usual accompanying government corruption.

The enormous, liberal, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Education, Healthcare, and Administration. The average income tax rate is 90.5%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Pajonian economy, worth 644 trillion Pajonian Credits a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is quite specialized, is mostly made up of the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism and Book Publishing. Average income is an impressive 121,240 Pajonian Credits, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Students are wary of colorfully decorated new teachers with names like Professor Pipsqueak, foreign nations kill migratory animals at random in the hope that Pajonia will pay them to stop, a government program is underway to revitalize Pajonia's beaches, and proper policy proposals prerequire professional peer-reviewed papers. Crime is totally unknown. Pajonia's national animal is the Oxpecker, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is State Atheism.

Pajonia is ranked 95,879^th in the world and 200^th in The Communist Bloc for Rudest Citizens, with 51.37 Insults Per Minute.
