The Panderers of Pandaland MMIXX is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by Panderboy with an iron fist, and remarkable for its museums and concert halls, zero percent divorce rate, and pith helmet sales. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless, devout population of 10.092 billion Pandaland MMIXXians are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."

The large, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Bamboo City. The average income tax rate is 77.8%.

The frighteningly efficient Pandaland MMIXXian economy, worth a remarkable 1,681 trillion Bamboo Shoots a year, is dominated by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Book Publishing, and Woodchip Exports. Black market activity is rampant. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an impressive 166,623 Bamboo Shoots, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 4.5 times as much as the poorest.

Tie-dye has been outlawed for being 'too occult', advertisements read like science journal articles complete with extensive references, several inches are being added to first class seating, and prospective secessionists nervously declare how worthless and unimportant they are. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Pandaland MMIXX's national animal is the Giant Panda, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its national religion is Bambooism.

Pandaland MMIXX is ranked 273,346^th in the world and 3,554^th in the West Pacific for Highest Food Quality, scoring 6.5 on the Meeshlin-Starr Index.
