The Republic of The Smashing Pumpkins is a mammoth, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Billy the Baldy with an even hand, and renowned for its rum-swilling pirates, ritual sacrifices, and punitive income tax rates. The hard-nosed, humorless, devout population of 5.169 billion Smashing Pumpkinsians are highly moralistic and fiercely conservative, in the sense that they tend to believe most things should be outlawed. People who have good jobs and work quietly at them are lauded; others are viewed with suspicion.

The large, corrupt, moralistic government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Chicago. The average income tax rate is 61.7%.

The frighteningly efficient Smashing Pumpkinsian economy, worth 488 trillion dollars a year, is led by the Uranium Mining industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Beef-Based Agriculture, and Tourism. Black market activity is frequent. Average income is 94,576 dollars, with the richest citizens earning 5.0 times as much as the poorest.

Children cry as government officials steal their water pistols, wind farms are erected on shuttered oil platforms, APCs on school runs disgorge kids via assault ramps, and money always talks but the taboo subject of death just brings silence. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. The Smashing Pumpkins's national animal is the stag, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

The Smashing Pumpkins is ranked 134,417^th in the world and 9^th in Blue Ridge for Largest Populations, with 5.17 billion capita.
