The Hoppean State of Plusquam verisimile est is a colossal, cultured nation, ruled by Frank Akselsen with an iron fist, and remarkable for its pith helmet sales, compulsory military service, and avant-garde cinema. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical population of 7.94 billion Estians are ruled by a mostly-benevolent dictator, who grants the populace the freedom to live their own lives but watches carefully for anyone to slip up.

The large, corrupt, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Administration, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of terra pecunia. The average income tax rate is 64.8%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Estian economy, worth 900 trillion pretiums a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Information Technology, and Book Publishing. Black market activity is extensive. Average income is an impressive 113,425 pretiums, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.6 times as much as the poorest.

Every workday begins with group therapy, the government frequently panders to parents with boutique tax credits, tumbleweeds are seen blowing through the nation's airspace, and the men in trenchcoats hanging around playgrounds are actually police officers. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Plusquam verisimile est's national animal is the Fox, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is The Economy.

Plusquam verisimile est is ranked 34,431^st in the world and 2,178^th in Lazarus for Most Corrupt Governments, with 63.23 kickbacks per hour.
