The Furries of Protogen Pals is a massive, socially progressive nation, ruled by Dexterat Fuzzy Wolf with an even hand, and remarkable for its teetotalling pirates, rampant corporate plagiarism, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate, hard-working, democratic population of 2.771 billion Protogens enjoy extensive civil freedoms, particularly in social issues, while business tends to be more regulated.

The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Education, Industry, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Midwest FurFest. The average income tax rate is 66.4%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Protogen Palsian economy, worth 502 trillion Rams a year, is broadly diversified and dominated by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Retail, Uranium Mining, and Book Publishing. Average income is an impressive 181,328 Rams, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.9 times as much as the poorest.

Students do more community service than homework, funerals are often rudely interrupted by juggling clowns shouting for volunteers from the audience, airport announcements inform passengers that flights have been delayed because pilots are having afternoon naps, and sweet-toothed Protogens have been left penniless by the VAT on candy. Crime is totally unknown. Protogen Pals's national animal is the Protogen, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is The Protogen Mindset.

Protogen Pals is ranked 119,222^nd in the world and 466^th in Concord for Safest, scoring 73.54 on the Bubble-Rapp Safety Rating.
