The Bright Haze of Panagouge is a titanic, genial nation, ruled by Rewan Demontay with a fair hand, and notable for its daily referendums, ritual sacrifices, and smutty television. The compassionate, hard-working, democratic, cheerful, devout population of 17.247 billion Panagougeans hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.

The large, corrupt, liberal, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Amibell. The income tax rate is 100%.

The frighteningly efficient Panagougean economy, worth a remarkable 8,318 trillion Dragoonos a year, is mostly comprised of black market activity, especially in Information Technology, Tourism, Book Publishing, and Retail. Average income is an amazing 482,314 Dragoonos, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.4 times as much as the poorest.

Citizens partake in escapades with creatures of the night, world leaders often feel uncomfortable when Rewan Demontay tries to recruit them into selling cosmetics, it's all white elephants on parade, and the most notorious criminals are given the Consequences of Your Actions Award. Crime is totally unknown. Panagouge's national animal is the Nothingness, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Void Doctrine.

Panagouge is ranked 329,926^th in the world and 3,215^th in the Pacific for Largest Insurance Industry, scoring -21.33 on the Risk Expulsion Effectiveness Rating.
