The Oppressed Peoples of Perapasuy is a titanic, cultured nation, ruled by Kiroranke Ipekanro with an even hand, and renowned for its frequent executions, ban on automobiles, and keen interest in outer space. The hard-nosed, devout population of 10.636 billion Shiroipopotoroainutaripoyos have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and look forward to their next free and open election, to be held on an as-yet unannounced date.

The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Cirronup. The average income tax rate is 43.3%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The strong Wanpeikasuman economy, worth 719 trillion nimakis a year, is quite specialized and led by the Gambling industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Soda Sales, and Basket Weaving. Black market activity is extensive. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 67,670 nimakis, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.7 times as much as the poorest.

There's a lot of babies crying for milk in the middle of the day, the running costs of homeless shelters are so high that it would be cheaper to buy houses for the homeless, pulling weeds is seen as a threat to national security, and a significant number of tannu dolphins are being prosecuted on charges of child abuse. Crime is a problem, with the police force struggling against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. Perapasuy's national animal is the tannu dolphin, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans.

Perapasuy is ranked 17,289^th in the world and 4^th in Lewisham Library for Most Cultured, scoring 92 on the Snufflebottom-Wiggendum Pentatonic Scale.
