The Democratic Republic of Picminlan is a massive, environmentally stunning nation, notable for its rampant corporate plagiarism. The hard-nosed population of 2.379 billion Picmians 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 medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Environment. The average income tax rate is 25.7%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The Picminlanian economy, worth 113 trillion Kronor a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Uranium Mining, Beef-Based Agriculture, and Gambling. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 47,906 Kronor, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.9 times as much as the poorest.

Welfare recipients are milking the government for all they've got, children need to wear helmets and safety harnesses before mounting a carousel horse, the "Dreadnowt" is the pride and joy of the Picminlanian Navy, and celebrity chefs are thought to be the progenitors of all food. Crime is relatively low. Picminlan's national animal is the fox, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Picminlan is ranked 81,605^th in the world and 368^th in the Plains of Perdition for Most Eco-Friendly Governments, scoring 1,220.19 on the Dolphin Recycling Awareness Index.
