The Kingdom of Piratic is a gargantuan, socially progressive nation, remarkable for its deadly medical pandemics, rampant corporate plagiarism, and irreverence towards religion. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic, humorless population of 39.583 billion Piraticians hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.

The large, liberal government is effectively ruled by the Department of Defense, although Environment and Public Transport are also considered important, while Welfare and Social Policy are ignored. The average income tax rate is 48.6%.

The strong Piratician economy, worth a remarkable 2,572 trillion rums a year, is led by the Gambling industry, with significant contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Book Publishing, and Trout Farming. Black market activity is frequent. Average income is 64,989 rums, with the richest citizens earning 5.1 times as much as the poorest.

Organ donation rates are among the lowest in the region, truth is often impossible to tell from fiction on the evening news, dog breeding has been banned in accordance with recent animal experimentation laws, and the people elect the Supreme Court justices directly. Crime, especially youth-related, is pervasive, perhaps because of the country's complete lack of prisons. Piratic's national animal is the hard tack, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Piratic is ranked 123,981^st in the world and 1^st in Marijuana militia for Most Advanced Public Education, scoring 1,559.62 on the Edu-tellignce® Test Score.
