The Peenadian not The Republic of Second Peenadian is a colossal, socially progressive nation, ruled by National Leader with an even hand, and remarkable for its barren, inhospitable landscape, pith helmet sales, and stringent health and safety legislation. The humorless population of 5.099 billion Peenaders have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The medium-sized, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Industry, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Habushtatal. The average income tax rate is 82.0%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Peenader economy, worth 974 trillion Peenadian Dollars a year, is fairly diversified and mostly comprised of black market activity, especially in Information Technology, Arms Manufacturing, Woodchip Exports, and Book Publishing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 191,129 Peenadian Dollars, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.0 times as much as the poorest.

Local officials love to claim the protection of their Big Brother, Second Peenadian has been recently classified as an international menace after 'liberating' several nearby territories, children are often observed making 'sand angels' in bunkers, and weather forecasts are accurate but nobody has the bandwidth to view them. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Second Peenadian's national animal is the Panther, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its national religion is Anything.

Second Peenadian is ranked 47,995^th in the world and 134^th in 10000 Islands for Largest Automobile Manufacturing Sector, scoring 4,307.15 on the Henry Ford Productivity Index.
