The Truly Ideal Nation of Pelinai is a massive, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by The Funny Bird with an even hand, and remarkable for its state-planned economy, frequent executions, and restrictive gun laws. The hard-nosed, devout population of 2.993 billion Pelinese are prohibited from doing almost everything except voting, which they do timidly and conservatively.

The medium-sized, moralistic government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Healthcare. The average income tax rate is 44.8%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The Pelinese economy, worth 203 trillion Pelinese Hanas a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is broadly diversified, is led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Beef-Based Agriculture, Basket Weaving, and Book Publishing. Average income is 67,879 Pelinese Hanas, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Tom and Jerry cartoons have cat and mouse resolving their problems with reasoned discussion, genetic screening weeds out citizens whose legs don't bend easily at the knee, people talk about things being better when men were men, and the government considers it a sacred duty to video bikini-clad beach swimmers. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Pelinai's national animal is the Level fish, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans.

Pelinai is ranked 49,375^th in the world and 1,081^st in the South Pacific for Lowest Crime Rates, with 74.47 law-abiding acts per hour.
