The State of Poasa is a gargantuan, safe nation, renowned for its burgeoning deer population. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic population of 26.881 billion Poasans enjoy a sensible mix of personal and economic freedoms, while the political process is open and the people's right to vote held sacrosanct.

The large, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Welfare, Education, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Capital Heights. The average income tax rate is 38.4%.

The very strong Poasan economy, worth a remarkable 1,013 trillion betales a year, is quite specialized and led by the Automobile Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Gambling. Average income is 37,713 betales, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 4.4 times as much as the poorest.

The government is avowedly atheist, the tenet of free speech is held dear, the alarmingly racist TV show 'Bigtopians Say the Darndest Things' is a hit, and Poasa has designated Capital Heights as its capital city. Crime is well under control, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Poasa's national animal is the deer, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Poasa is ranked 228,704^th in the world and 6^th in Bogota for Highest Disposable Incomes, with 23,231.76 Standard Monetary Units.
