The Democratic People's Republic of Pan Allika is a massive, socially progressive nation, remarkable for its rum-swilling pirates, flagrant waste-dumping, and complete absence of social welfare. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic, humorless population of 4.857 billion gados are either ruled by a sleek, efficient government or a conglomerate of multinational corporations; it's difficult to tell which.

The relatively small, corrupt, pro-business government juggles the competing demands of Industry, Defense, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Gadolandia. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 27.9%.

The frighteningly efficient gado economy, worth 886 trillion Partizans a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Retail, Arms Manufacturing, and Uranium Mining. Black market activity is extensive. Average income is an impressive 182,542 Partizans, but there is a vast disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 1,658,512 per year while the poor average 2,310, a ratio of 717 to 1.

The Gadolandia Film Festival recently voted 'Gado Getting Hit By Football' as best film, sales of trenchcoats are on the rise, business is banging at no-tell motels, and chalkboards are replaced with billboards in the classroom. Crime is a problem, with the police force struggling against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. Pan Allika's national animal is the Eagle, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to toxic air pollution, and its national religion is Ateísmo.

Pan Allika is ranked 255,279^th in the world and 102^nd in Flanelistan for Lowest Crime Rates, with 49.25 law-abiding acts per hour.
