The Republic of Pekamura is a mammoth, safe nation, renowned for its compulsory military service, irreverence towards religion, and devotion to social welfare. The cynical population of 5.352 billion Pekamurans are ruled with an iron fist by the dictatorship government, which ensures that no-one outside the party gets too rich. In their personal lives, however, citizens are relatively unoppressed; it remains to be seen whether this is because the government genuinely cares about its people, or if it hasn't gotten around to stamping out civil rights yet.

The medium-sized, socially-minded, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Welfare, Defense, and Law & Order. The average income tax rate is 46.7%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The large but underdeveloped Pekamuran economy, worth 193 trillion florins a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is fairly diversified, is led by the Cheese Exports industry, with major contributions from Book Publishing, Furniture Restoration, and Woodchip Exports. Average income is 36,223 florins, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Pekamura's national animal is the tiger.

Pekamura is ranked 88,281^st in the world and 2^nd in Pekolandia Republics for Safest, scoring 88.06 on the Bubble-Rapp Safety Rating.
