The Matriarchy of PapaBellum is a gargantuan, orderly nation, ruled by Queen Regent PapaBellum with an iron fist, and notable for its free-roaming dinosaurs, public floggings, and complete lack of prisons. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless population of 10.151 billion Draconixeses are ruled without fear or favor by a psychotic dictator, who outlaws just about everything and refers to the populace as "my little playthings."

The enormous, corrupt, moralistic, socially-minded, well-organized government is dominated by the Department of Defense, with Education and Healthcare also on the agenda, while Spirituality isn't funded at all. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Bella. The income tax rate is 100%.

The frighteningly efficient PapaBellumian economy, worth a remarkable 6,198 trillion Blood Pounds a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is an enormous, deeply entrenched, quite specialized black market in Arms Manufacturing and Information Technology. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is a breathtaking 610,664 Blood Pounds, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Wishing you had children is considered a sign of child abuse, heroes long thought dead are promptly killed upon their return, nouveau riche farmers diligently take care of their golden calf herds, and nude art is becoming wildly popular. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. PapaBellum's national animal is the Dragon, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Intrabellum Pact.

PapaBellum is ranked 236,401^st in the world and 2^nd in Papastan for Lowest Overall Tax Burden, scoring -3132.04 on the Hayek Index.
