The Federation of P3EX-888 is a colossal, socially progressive nation, renowned for its barren, inhospitable landscape and irreverence towards religion. The hard-working, democratic population of 6.161 billion P3EX-888ians enjoy extensive civil freedoms, particularly in social issues, while business tends to be more regulated.

The medium-sized, liberal government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Welfare. The average income tax rate is 21.1%.

The P3EX-888ian economy, worth 337 trillion kronor a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Uranium Mining industry, with major contributions from Woodchip Exports, Gambling, and Soda Sales. Average income is 54,726 kronor, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.9 times as much as the poorest.

Parents seeking custody have to write a five-thousand word analysis of their child's imaginary friend, an epidemic of unpopped kernels causes movie goers to gnash their teeth, tombstones are ten feet high to accommodate the names of inhabitants, and the beauty of coastal towns is marred only slightly by all the closed-down storefronts. Crime is well under control. P3EX-888's national animal is the cow, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.
