The Regional collection of The North Pacific S3 is a massive, efficient nation, ruled by The Collector with an even hand, and remarkable for its digital currency, smutty television, and devotion to social welfare. The hard-nosed, devout population of 2.799 billion North Pacific S3ians are prohibited from doing almost everything except voting, which they do timidly and conservatively.

The medium-sized, corrupt, moralistic government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of The North Pacific. The average income tax rate is 59.5%.

The frighteningly efficient North Pacific S3ian economy, worth 358 trillion Banks a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is a slick, highly efficient, broadly diversified black market in Tourism, Arms Manufacturing, Furniture Restoration, and Uranium Mining. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is an impressive 128,138 Banks, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.4 times as much as the poorest.

Cards has been named as The North Pacific S3's national religion, foreign leaders' Twitcher accounts are monitored for potential threats to national security, the fishing lobby has stemmed the tide of environmental regulations, and the decision to be oppressed is now made democratically. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. The North Pacific S3's national animal is the Sea Three, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans, and its national religion is Cards.

The North Pacific S3 is ranked 30,562^nd in the world and 751^st in The North Pacific for Most Patriotic, with 38.06 flags saluted per person per day.
