The Theocracy of Potatopelago is a huge, efficient nation, notable for its museums and concert halls, absence of drug laws, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, democratic, devout population of 218 million Potatopelagoans 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 government juggles the competing demands of Education, Welfare, and Healthcare. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 44.0%.

The strong Potatopelagic economy, worth 16.6 trillion Paktontas a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector is led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Basket Weaving, and Beef-Based Agriculture. Average income is 75,965 Paktontas, with the richest citizens earning 9.0 times as much as the poorest.

When their backs are against the walls Potatopelagoans look out for gay men, turning the other cheek is accompanied by a polite letter of complaint, selfie stick use is a required Scout badge, and tourists visit Potatopelago to mass-moon Potatopelagic politicians. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. Potatopelago's national animal is the Potato Partridge, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Potatopelago is ranked 24,707^th in the world and 428^th in Europe for Most Beautiful Environments, with 914.58 pounds of wildlife per square mile.
