The Sereníssimo of Reino de Portvgal is a colossal, cultured nation, ruled by Dom Mário V with an even hand, and notable for its museums and concert halls, daily referendums, and unlimited-speed roads. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic, cheerful population of 5.902 billion Portuguese are either ruled by a sleek, efficient government or a conglomerate of multinational corporations; it's difficult to tell which.

The relatively small government juggles the competing demands of Industry, Defense, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Córdoba. The average income tax rate is 9.1%.

The frighteningly efficient Portuguese economy, worth a remarkable 1,546 trillion Reais a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Arms Manufacturing, and Retail. Average income is an amazing 261,967 Reais, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 4.2 times as much as the poorest.

Portuguese are regularly fired for looking at MyFace during their lunch breaks, manufacturers of biodegradable plastics have to wait for months to show evidence of organic decomposition, families waiting for delayed pipe installations hope daily for rain, and employers are finding it hard to screen candidates now that everyone gets A grades in their exams. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. Reino de Portvgal's national animal is the Black Pig, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Catholicism.

Reino de Portvgal is ranked 1,153^rd in the world and 4^th in Portugal for Highest Disposable Incomes, with 238,128.29 Standard Monetary Units.
