The Fiefdom of Pan-Pawnee is a titanic, genial nation, remarkable for its state-planned economy, compulsory military service, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, democratic population of 13.072 billion Pan-Pawneeans are free to do what they want with their own bodies, and vote for whomever they like in elections; if they go into business, however, they are regulated to within an inch of their lives.

The large, liberal, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Welfare, Education, and Defense. The average income tax rate is 58.4%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The large but stagnant Pan-Pawneean economy, worth 203 trillion Knots a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is fairly diversified, is led by the Door-to-door Insurance Sales industry, with major contributions from Uranium Mining, Woodchip Exports, and Book Publishing. Average income is 15,604 Knots, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Pan-Pawnee's national animal is the Thalasso.

Pan-Pawnee is ranked 160,944^th in the world and 10^th in The DankLeft Commune for Most Eco-Friendly Governments, scoring 363.67 on the Dolphin Recycling Awareness Index.
