The Republic of Powlanska is a colossal, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Thomas Block with a fair hand, and remarkable for its compulsory military service, daily referendums, and absence of drug laws. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful population of 6.573 billion Powlanskans are free to do what they want with their own bodies, and vote for whomever they like in elections; if they go into business, however, they are regulated to within an inch of their lives.

The large government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Walhopen. The average income tax rate is 95.4%.

The frighteningly efficient Powlanskan economy, worth a remarkable 1,124 trillion Posklas a year, is led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism and Book Publishing. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an impressive 171,116 Posklas, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The nation's diplomatic missives are now delivered via sniper rifle, young children are learning advanced physics to scientifically disprove the existence of Santa Claus, a flying elephant and Thomas Block share the same nickname, and all telephone traffic is monitored for 'national security reasons'. Crime is totally unknown. Powlanska's national animal is the Trout, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans.

Powlanska is ranked 53,088th in the world and 142nd in Europe for Most Stationary, with 832.96584190152 days.
