The Protectorate of Penguia is a colossal, pleasant nation, renowned for its barren, inhospitable landscape and irreverence towards religion. The hard-working, democratic population of 8.182 billion Antarctican Penguins 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 tiny government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Welfare, and Education. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 7.0%.

The strong Antarctican economy, worth 525 trillion Antarctican doubloons a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is broadly diversified and led by the Uranium Mining industry, with major contributions from Furniture Restoration, Woodchip Exports, and Door-to-door Insurance Sales. Average income is 64,216 Antarctican doubloons, with the richest citizens earning 7.5 times as much as the poorest.

Lip-readers are often left perplexed by political rallies, military spending recently hit a new high, the country's famous rainforests are being bulldozed by the mining industry, and it is illegal to make racist remarks in public. Crime is moderate, with the police force struggling against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. Penguia's national animal is the Mermaid, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to heavy metals seepage into national waterways.

Penguia is ranked 34,785^th in the world and 5^th in Penguia for Highest Disposable Incomes, with 59,721.29 Standard Monetary Units.
