The Republic of Peakychu is a massive, environmentally stunning nation, renowned for its smutty television, ubiquitous missile silos, and irreverence towards religion. The hard-nosed population of 1.334 billion Peakychuans have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and look forward to their next free and open election, to be held on an as-yet unannounced date.

The relatively small government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Administration, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Bleak Beach. The average income tax rate is 16.4%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The strong Peakychuan economy, worth 79.5 trillion pokeyens a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Trout Farming industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Uranium Mining, and Book Publishing. Black market activity is notable. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 59,579 pokeyens, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.7 times as much as the poorest.

The nationalistic national anthem inspires citizens to literally spit at foreigners, school teachers check the staff room for hidden webcams before complaining about rebellious students, pulling weeds is seen as a threat to national security, and lip-readers are often left perplexed by political rallies. Crime, especially youth-related, is well under control, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Peakychu's national animal is the pikachu, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Peakychu is ranked 80,755^th in the world and 3^rd in Pokopia for Most Corrupt Governments, with 23.61 kickbacks per hour.
