The Democratic Republic of Pimpompimpong is a massive, safe nation, remarkable for its barren, inhospitable landscape, frequent executions, and punitive income tax rates. The hard-nosed population of 2.187 billion Pimpompimpongians are prohibited from doing almost everything except voting, which they do timidly and conservatively.

The large, moralistic, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Administration, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Pimpompimpongrado. The average income tax rate is 66.7%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The sizeable but underdeveloped Pimpompimpongian economy, worth 78.2 trillion banknote with the Dear Leader faces 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 led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Uranium Mining, and Woodchip Exports. Average income is 35,772 banknote with the Dear Leader faces, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Millions of simultaneously backfiring toilets have flooded Pimpompimpongrado with effluent, strange looking men with big red noses are found hiding behind bushes and inside dustbins, the government's fruit business reeks of rotting produce and corruption, and convicted felons are forced into slavery for their crimes. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Pimpompimpong's national animal is the exquisite special national flower, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Pimpompimpong is ranked 203,149^th in the world and 6^th in Bleak Eternity of Gehenna for Largest Trout Fishing Sector, scoring 295.49 on the Nemo Depletion Efficiency Index.
