The Borderlands of Piak is a mid-sized, socially progressive nation, renowned for its absence of drug laws and spontaneously combusting cars. The compassionate, hard-working, democratic population of 50 million Piakians live in a state of perpetual fear, as a complete breakdown of social order has led to the rise of order through biker gangs.

The relatively small, liberal, pro-business, outspoken government is primarily concerned with Administration, although Healthcare, Education, and Welfare are also considered important, while Spirituality and Industry receive no funds. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 9.6%.

The strong Piakian economy, worth 2.30 trillion pounds a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Door-to-door Insurance Sales, Tourism, and Basket Weaving. Average income is 46,068 pounds, but there is a large disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 228,296 per year while the poor average 5,271, a ratio of 43.3 to 1.

Crime is a problem, with the police force struggling against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. Piak's national animal is the emu, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Piak is ranked 152,082^nd in the world and 1^st in Socialist Utopia for Most Rebellious Youth, scoring zero on the Stark-Dean Displacement Index.
