The Republic of Pongo Tapanuliensis is a massive, efficient nation, ruled by Chantek Rocky with an even hand, and renowned for its daily referendums, smutty television, and irreverence towards religion. The compassionate population of 1.407 billion Pongo Tapanuliensians 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, Administration, and Defense. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Pongo Pygmaeus. The average income tax rate is 69.6%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Pongo Tapanuliensian economy, worth 177 trillion Pongo Reais a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Tourism, and Book Publishing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 125,878 Pongo Reais, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Dog breeding has been banned in accordance with recent animal experimentation laws, Chantek Rocky is called 'Patches' at international summits, Pongo Tapanuliensian police have to pay out of their own pockets for bulletproof vests, and politicians who vacation in East Lebatuck lose their jobs upon their return. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Pongo Tapanuliensis's national animal is the Orangutan and its national religion is Orangutan Mater.

Pongo Tapanuliensis is ranked 44,686^th in the world and 271^st in the West Pacific for Most Advanced Defense Forces, scoring 5,557 on the Total War Preparedness Rating.
