The Pirates Cove of Piedra Negra is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by Guybrush Threepwood with an even hand, and renowned for its museums and concert halls, national health service, and smutty television. The hard-nosed, humorless population of 41.873 billion Tri-Island area inhabitants are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.
The large, corrupt, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Education, Environment, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Melee Island. The average income tax rate is 95.3%.
The frighteningly efficient Monkey Islander economy, worth an astonishing 10,230 trillion Stans 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 an enormous, deeply entrenched, highly specialized black market in Information Technology, Arms Manufacturing, and Furniture Restoration. 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 amazing 244,331 Stans, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.
The government's new "quiet competence" initiative has supporters and detractors alike reeling in confusion, dynamite sales and concert audiences are booming, Guybrush Threepwood likes it when another nation spies on their citizens, and heart attack victims are thrown onto the rails. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Piedra Negra's national animal is the Ghost Pirate Lechuck, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Scallywag.
Piedra Negra is ranked 284,522nd in the world and 39th in Antarctica for Most Patriotic, with 0.36 flags saluted per person per day.
