The Community of Pontrexa is a massive, environmentally stunning nation, renowned for its unlimited-speed roads, state-planned economy, and irreverence towards religion. The compassionate, cynical population of 1.169 billion Pontrexans are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The medium-sized, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Welfare, Education, and Administration. The average income tax rate is 36.8%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The sizeable but sluggish Pontrexan economy, worth 23.1 trillion dollars a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is a slick, highly efficient, quite specialized black market in Trout Farming, Automobile Manufacturing, Uranium Mining, and Information Technology. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is 19,754 dollars, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Parents are fined for sending their children to take out the trash after sunset, rare art has become a significant factor in negotiating all foreign trade agreements, the nation's police officers are famously miserable-looking, and the nation's politicians are known more for the internet memes they spawn than any of their accomplishments. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Pontrexa's national animal is the eagle, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Pontrexa is ranked 305,312^th in the world and 486^th in Starlight for Highest Disposable Incomes, with 12,484.67 Standard Monetary Units.
