The Free Land of The Pacific Network is a small, efficient nation, remarkable for its frequent executions, strictly enforced bedtime, and irreverence towards religion. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical population of 40 million Pacific Networkians are rabid consumers, partly through choice and partly because the government tells them to and dissenters tend to vanish from their homes at night.

The relatively small, pro-business, well-organized government is primarily concerned with Law & Order, although Industry, Defense, and Public Transport are also considered important, while Spirituality and Welfare are ignored. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 11.9%.

The thriving Pacific Networkian economy, worth 2.55 trillion UBI Credits a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Gambling industry, with significant contributions from Woodchip Exports, Furniture Restoration, and Retail. Average income is 63,660 UBI Credits, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 199,596 per year while the poor average 15,558, a ratio of 12.8 to 1.

Motorway service stations often have a higher population than the hinterland villages that the roads lead to, city budgets are spent entirely on supporting the town royalty, the ego of former emperors tend to match their stature, and mosh pits are a common phenomenon in Leader's political rallies. Crime, especially youth-related, is relatively low, thanks to a very well-funded police force. The Pacific Network's national animal is the Cat, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

The Pacific Network is ranked 257,081^st in the world and 9^th in Rudyardistan for Most Eco-Friendly Governments, scoring zero on the Dolphin Recycling Awareness Index.
