The Neigbourhood Commonwealth of Parque das Nacoes is a colossal, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by António de Aguiar Pereira with an iron fist, and notable for its zero percent divorce rate, punitive income tax rates, and stringent health and safety legislation. The cynical, devout population of 6.011 billion Lisboetas are ruled by a mostly-benevolent dictator, who grants the populace the freedom to live their own lives but watches carefully for anyone to slip up.

The medium-sized, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Administration, and Defense. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Sacavém. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 51.9%.

The all-consuming Portuguese economy, worth 562 trillion Euros a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Tourism, and Basket Weaving. Black market activity is extensive. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 93,550 Euros, with the richest citizens earning 5.5 times as much as the poorest.

Wealthy parents-to-be can select their perfect baby, politicians can't accept birthday presents from their own children, business is banging at no-tell motels, and family trees become bare as entire branches are lopped off. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Parque das Nacoes's national animal is the Gil, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Christianity.

Parque das Nacoes is ranked 177,330th in the world and 4th in Zona Internacional de Lisboa for Highest Foreign Aid Spending, scoring zero on the Clooney Contribution Index.
