The High Flying Nation of Planes is a massive, cultured nation, ruled by D Havilliand with an even hand, and remarkable for its museums and concert halls, devotion to social welfare, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, devout population of 1.019 billion Planesians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The large government juggles the competing demands of Healthcare, Welfare, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Bombardier-Boeing-Airbus city. The average income tax rate is 57.3%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The strong Planesian economy, worth 68.7 trillion engines a year, is led by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing, Information Technology, and Woodchip Exports. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 67,404 engines, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Consumption of cat memes has skyrocketed, airport security has been named as Planes's national religion, the television adaptation of Jennifer Government is the most popular program in the nation, and interest in globalism never flags. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. Planes's national animal is the syrian hamster, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is airport security.

Planes is ranked 124,340^th in the world and 6,310^th in The North Pacific for Largest Agricultural Sector, scoring -4.9 on the Mu-Bah-Daggs Productivity Index.
