The Free-Love Socialist Autarchy of PsychoPantachy is a mammoth, efficient nation, ruled by Ra Ra Rasputin with an iron fist, and notable for its pith helmet sales, prohibition of alcohol, and compulsory gun ownership. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless population of 8.062 billion PsychoPantachians are ruled without fear or favor by a psychotic dictator, who outlaws just about everything and refers to the populace as "my little playthings."

The medium-sized, corrupt, moralistic, socially-minded, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Education, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Psychograd. The average income tax rate is 98.7%.

The frighteningly efficient PsychoPantachyian economy, worth a remarkable 3,221 trillion Drugs a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is an enormous, deeply entrenched, broadly diversified black market in Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, Book Publishing, and Uranium Mining. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is an amazing 399,638 Drugs, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Older citizens lament over the loss of law and order, dangerous criminals are often 'accidentally' sent on one-way trips to Maxtopia, shoppers carry protractors to verify their produce, and male friends are often accompanied by a female relative in order to prove their 'straightness'. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. PsychoPantachy's national animal is the Unicorn, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Socialism.

PsychoPantachy is ranked 234,325th in the world and 1,454th in the Plains of Perdition for Most Eco-Friendly Governments, scoring 149.29 on the Dolphin Recycling Awareness Index.
