The Plum Fun Guérillères of Pum Flun is a colossal, genial nation, ruled by Head of NBC Kenneth Parcell with a fair hand, and renowned for its state-planned economy, soft-spoken computers, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful population of 5.079 billion Flunne are free to do what they want with their own bodies, and vote for whomever they like in elections; if they go into business, however, they are regulated to within an inch of their lives.

The medium-sized, corrupt, liberal government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Cyber Crete 909. The average income tax rate is 68.3%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Flunne economy, worth a remarkable 1,063 trillion Grrls a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is fairly diversified, is led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Book Publishing, and Furniture Restoration. Average income is an amazing 209,449 Grrls, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Retirement homes are often fitted with luxurious suites, young children are regularly seen wagering pocket money at blackjack tables, schoolyard bullying has a tendency to escalate, and criminals rejoice in the streets as the entire police force is sent away on a training retreat. Crime is totally unknown. Pum Flun's national animal is the tongue kissing bonobo, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is TempleOS.

Pum Flun is ranked 4,748^th in the world and 132^nd in The East Pacific for Most Scientifically Advanced, scoring 564.02 on the Kurzweil Singularity Index.
