The Constitutional Monarchy of Portucalae is a gargantuan, genial nation, ruled by Sua Alteza Real with an even hand, and renowned for its museums and concert halls, anti-smoking policies, and absence of drug laws. The compassionate, democratic, devout population of 34.227 billion Portucalaeans are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The large, socially-minded government prioritizes Education, with Law & Order and Environment also on the agenda, while Social Policy and International Aid aren't funded at all. The average income tax rate is 8.2%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The strong Portucalaean economy, worth a remarkable 1,709 trillion escudoes a year, is extremely specialized and solely comprised of the Book Publishing industry. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 49,932 escudoes, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Captains must wait until all rats are safe before jumping ship, the nation's politicians are acknowledged as the most polite in the region to the dismay of comedians everywhere, there's more vermin than ever on the metro, and tourists outnumber citizens two to one. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Portucalae's national animal is the lince, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Portucalae is ranked 19,638^th in the world and 21^st in Portugal for Lowest Crime Rates, with 90.01 law-abiding acts per hour.
