The Republic of The Portuguese Workers is a gargantuan, genial nation, ruled by Glorioso Camarada Bruno with an even hand, and renowned for its free-roaming dinosaurs, rampant corporate plagiarism, and hatred of cheese. The compassionate, cheerful population of 29.526 billion Portuguese Workersians enjoy extensive civil rights and enjoy a level of social equality free from the usual accompanying government corruption.

It is difficult to tell where the omnipresent, socially-minded government stops and the rest of society begins, but it juggles the competing demands of Education, Environment, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Porto. The income tax rate is 100%.

The frighteningly efficient Portuguese Workersian economy, worth a remarkable 6,895 trillion escudoes a year, is driven almost entirely by government activity, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is highly specialized, is led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Book Publishing and Tourism. State-owned companies are the norm. Average income is an amazing 233,549 escudoes, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Skateparks can be found in every city, 'A is for Annulment' is a popular children's song, new arrivals are asked the location of the Minister of the Interior's birthmark, and the government has cut taxes in the face of widespread tax evasion. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. The Portuguese Workers's national animal is the laughing cat, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

The Portuguese Workers is ranked 730th in the world and 2nd in Portugal for Safest, scoring 178.13 on the Bubble-Rapp Safety Rating.
