The United Administrative State of Pellinor is a massive, efficient nation, ruled by Chancellor Waters with an even hand, and renowned for its keen interest in outer space, compulsory military service, and sprawling nuclear power plants. The compassionate population of 1.548 billion Pellinori enjoy extensive civil rights and enjoy a level of social equality free from the usual accompanying government corruption.

The enormous, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Welfare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Veyer Bay. The average income tax rate is 88.7%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Pellinori economy, worth 177 trillion stochels a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is quite specialized, is led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Beef-Based Agriculture. Average income is an impressive 114,466 stochels, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

A byzantine web of conspiracies and secret alliances must be navigated any time legislation is voted upon, going on a diet invalidates your passport, it is illegal to distribute Girl Guide Cookies without an advanced food hygiene diploma, and programmes of questionable content are shown at peak-hours. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Pellinor's national animal is the Sandhill Crane, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Milquarianism.

Pellinor is ranked 8,614^th in the world and 7^th in Audinesca for Most Eco-Friendly Governments, scoring 6,113.34 on the Dolphin Recycling Awareness Index.
