The Palm Tree Paradise of The Pink Feather is a gargantuan, safe nation, ruled by Mayor Pinkyfinger with an even hand, and renowned for its keen interest in outer space, public floggings, and punitive income tax rates. The hard-nosed population of 44.124 billion Pink Featherites 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 large government juggles the competing demands of Environment, Healthcare, and Welfare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Rio de Flamingo. The average income tax rate is 88.0%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The very strong Pink Featherian economy, worth a remarkable 3,694 trillion pinkaneroes a year, is driven almost entirely by government activity. The industrial sector is mostly comprised of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, although the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is 83,726 pinkaneroes, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The nation is proudly the least fertile in Vatican, the military is recruiting war criminals to join its weapons research teams, research into 'designer babies' is banned, and curtailed social programs have left many citizens bereft of any safety net. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. The Pink Feather's national animal is the flamingo, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Catholicism.

The Pink Feather is ranked 291,621^st in the world and 12^th in Vatican for Largest Insurance Industry, scoring -22.11 on the Risk Expulsion Effectiveness Rating.
