The Honorable Commonwealth of Pekweng is a gargantuan, socially progressive nation, ruled by President Rodrigo Santillan with an even hand, and renowned for its smutty television, zero percent divorce rate, and national health service. The compassionate, cheerful, devout population of 28.47 billion Pekwengnians enjoy extensive civil rights and enjoy a level of social equality free from the usual accompanying government corruption.

The enormous, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Katherinia. The average income tax rate is 99.3%.

The frighteningly efficient Pekwengnian economy, worth a remarkable 5,757 trillion Crons a year, is quite specialized and led by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing, Information Technology, and Basket Weaving. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an amazing 202,240 Crons, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The nation's navy has been named the scourge of the seven thousand seas, President Rodrigo Santillan's exquisite office door is replaced monthly due to angry petitioners, going on a diet invalidates your passport, and elections have become procedural nightmares due to voters persistently rejecting candidates. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Pekweng's national animal is the Cat, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Pekweng is ranked 1,907^th in the world and 43^rd in The East Pacific for Most Eco-Friendly Governments, scoring 12,483.37 on the Dolphin Recycling Awareness Index.
