The Republic of Poafmersia is a colossal, socially progressive nation, ruled by Pikashru Nisharian with a fair hand, and remarkable for its complete lack of prisons, keen interest in outer space, and absence of drug laws. The compassionate, hard-working, democratic population of 9.077 billion Poafmers 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 juggles the competing demands of Education, Welfare, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Fiskadaha. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 8.3%.

The thriving Poafmersian economy, worth 560 trillion Totatoeses a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Gambling, Retail, and Door-to-door Insurance Sales. Average income is 61,741 Totatoeses, but there is an enormous disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 336,636 per year while the poor average 5,805, a ratio of 58.0 to 1.

The government is giving peace a chance, people reciting Shakespeare have become a common sight, 'Police Academy 36' and 'Sharknados On A Plane' are vying for top spot at the box-office, and recruitment posters proclaim the army to be both fabulous and fashionable. Crime, especially youth-related, is a problem, perhaps because of the country's complete lack of prisons. Poafmersia's national animal is the Bear and its national religion is Potatoes.

Poafmersia is ranked 138,828^th in the world and 4^th in NS Sports for Most Subsidized Industry, scoring 732.18 on the Gilded Widget Scale.
