The United Socialist Federation of Pujolia is a massive, efficient nation, ruled by Supreme Chairman Pujol III with an iron fist, and remarkable for its rum-swilling pirates, frequent executions, and sprawling nuclear power plants. The compassionate, cynical population of 1.123 billion Pujolians 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 large, corrupt, socially-minded, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Defense. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of New Stalingrad. The average income tax rate is 74.0%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Pujolian economy, worth 139 trillion Laurobs a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is fairly diversified, is led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Arms Manufacturing, and Basket Weaving. Average income is an impressive 124,182 Laurobs, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The regional delicacy of chocolate bombes is deadlier than an unexploded bomb, basket-weaving is the nation's latest fad, children gain their first sex education from reading the dictionary, and the dessert 'Death by Chocolate' isn't the most lethal dish on the menu. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Pujolia's national animal is the Red Sunfish, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Pujolia is ranked 12,687th in the world and 202nd in The Communist Bloc for Most Cultured, scoring 104 on the Snufflebottom-Wiggendum Pentatonic Scale.
