The Free Land of Pytong is a mammoth, socially progressive nation, ruled by Kamil Iwo with an even hand, and notable for its keen interest in outer space, ritual sacrifices, and daily referendums. The compassionate, democratic population of 6.099 billion Pytongians have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The large, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Education, Industry, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Kamilowo. The average income tax rate is 95.7%.

The frighteningly efficient Pytongian economy, worth a remarkable 1,164 trillion kapustas a year, is dominated by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Arms Manufacturing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 190,927 kapustas, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.1 times as much as the poorest.

Heartfelt sentiments are mercilessly marketed by a million-kapusta treacle machine, the government's foreign policy statements are less threatening than a World Assembly cease-and-desist letter, Pytongians believe manners maketh the leader, and human sacrifice to the metaphorical altar of Mammon ensures national prosperity. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Pytong's national animal is the python 𓆙, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Pytongism.

Pytong is ranked 13,320^th in the world and 456^th in The North Pacific for Largest Welfare Programs, scoring 3,943.52 on the Safety Net Mesh Density Rating.
