The Confederacy of Pentrocy is a titanic, safe nation, remarkable for its rum-swilling pirates, free-roaming dinosaurs, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate, cheerful, devout population of 10.781 billion Pentrocians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The large government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of North Vita. The average income tax rate is 95.4%.

The frighteningly efficient Pentrocian economy, worth a remarkable 1,930 trillion Edges a year, is led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Arms Manufacturing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 179,087 Edges, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The new 'Who Wants To Be A Politician' election debate auditions are more popular than the debates themselves, watching shooting stars is Pentrocians' number two favorite pastime, chickens roam the streets freely, and the Pentrocy Automotive Racing Series draws millions of spectators annually while those near the tracks complain about the noise. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Pentrocy's national animal is the Fox, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Voiaism.

Pentrocy is ranked 3,099^th in the world and 133^rd in Lazarus for Most Compassionate Citizens, scoring 97.95 on the Kitten Softness Rating.
