The Commonwealth of Southern Poiriche is a massive, socially progressive nation, ruled by Chauried Greever with a fair hand, and remarkable for its free-roaming dinosaurs, daily referendums, and restrictive gun laws. The compassionate, democratic population of 1.54 billion Poichiones love a good election, and the government gives them plenty of them. Universities tend to be full of students debating the merits of various civil and political rights, while businesses are tightly regulated and the wealthy viewed with suspicion.

The large government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Auchenried. The average income tax rate is 82.1%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Southern Poirichean economy, worth 215 trillion Gienoes a year, is led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Retail. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 139,947 Gienoes, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.3 times as much as the poorest.

Water fights now end with thousands dead, refugees from other nations are flocking to Southern Poiriche's border, kids laugh off vandalism and arson as "just fun", and atheistic refugees haven't got a prayer of being granted asylum. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Southern Poiriche's national animal is the Chaufer, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Viviniarism.

Southern Poiriche is ranked 16,273^rd in the world and 481^st in The North Pacific for Lowest Crime Rates, with 95.55 law-abiding acts per hour.
