The Honorable Commonwealth of Pekweng is a gargantuan, socially progressive nation, ruled by President Rodrigo Santillan with an even hand, and remarkable for its keen interest in outer space, smutty television, and restrictive gun laws. The compassionate, devout population of 23.166 billion Pekwengnians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The enormous, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Katherinia. The average income tax rate is 98.5%.

The frighteningly efficient Pekwengnian economy, worth a remarkable 4,067 trillion Crons a year, is quite specialized and led by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing and Information Technology. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 175,596 Crons, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Vehicular manslaughter is apparently a victimless crime, delivery truck companies use hospital parking lots to store 16-wheelers, political parties are banned from advertising and receiving private donations, and military equipment is being auctioned off to extend comatose centenarians' lives. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Pekweng's national animal is the Cat, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Pekweng is ranked 11,292nd in the world and 167th in The East Pacific for Most Stationary, with 2,169.81977103668 days.
