The Homicidal Psycho Jungle Cat of Poskukune is a colossal, orderly nation, ruled by Thomas Hobbes with an iron fist, and renowned for its deadly medical pandemics, aversion to nipples, and compulsory military service. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless population of 6.412 billion Poskukunese are rabid consumers, partly through choice and partly because the government tells them to and dissenters tend to vanish from their homes at night.
The tiny, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Industry, Healthcare, and Defense. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Poskukune. The average income tax rate is 7.8%.
The frighteningly efficient Poskukunean economy, worth 795 trillion Paskalis a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Retail industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Gambling, and Soda Sales. Black market activity is notable. Average income is an impressive 124,138 Paskalis, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.1 times as much as the poorest.
Dealers go from pushing drugs to pushing up daisies, college-level writing classes are taught by undergraduate editors of the school newspaper, foreign converts are illuminated by both missionaries and helicopter searchlights, and motorists must pay to enter inner-cities during peak hours. Crime is pervasive, perhaps because of the country's complete lack of prisons. Poskukune's national animal is the Sumatran Tiger, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its national religion is Hobbesian.
Poskukune is ranked 283,428th in the world and 84th in Callista for Highest Food Quality, scoring 5.26 on the Meeshlin-Starr Index.
