The Workers-Ecological State of Psuke is a gargantuan, genial nation, ruled by Revolutionary Committee with an even hand, and notable for its digital currency, irreverence towards religion, and absence of drug laws. The compassionate, hard-working, humorless population of 10.883 billion Psukeans 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 Education, Healthcare, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Imperial Harbor. The average income tax rate is 6.7%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Psukean economy, worth a remarkable 1,717 trillion credits a year, is quite specialized and mostly made up of the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing, Retail, and Arms Manufacturing. Black market activity is frequent. Average income is an impressive 157,777 credits, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.3 times as much as the poorest.

Enemy navies sail within bombardment range of major coastal cities with impunity, the "war on terror" doesn't seem to be making Psukeans any less frightened, foreign leaders with unpaid parking tickets are often refused entry, and the world outside is only known of in folklore. Crime, especially youth-related, is all-pervasive, perhaps because of the country's complete lack of prisons. Psuke's national animal is the Sturgeon, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans, and its national religion is Psukean Orthodox Church.

Psuke is ranked 106,487th in the world and 96th in Forest for Largest Furniture Restoration Industry, scoring 2,895.14 on the Spitz-Pollish Productivity Index.
