The Community of Pagalina is a gargantuan, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Leader with an iron fist, and remarkable for its strictly enforced bedtime, restrictive gun laws, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, cynical, cheerful, devout population of 32.08 billion Pagalinans are ruled with an iron fist by the dictatorship government, which ensures that no-one outside the party gets too rich. In their personal lives, however, citizens are relatively unoppressed; it remains to be seen whether this is because the government genuinely cares about its people, or if it hasn't gotten around to stamping out civil rights yet.

The enormous, socially-minded government prioritizes Education, with Environment, Law & Order, and Social Policy also on the agenda, while Spirituality and Defense receive no funds. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Pagalina City. The average income tax rate is 82.1%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The Pagalinan economy, worth a remarkable 2,554 trillion Linas a year, is extremely specialized and mostly made up of the Book Publishing industry, with significant contributions from Cheese Exports. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 79,629 Linas, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.0 times as much as the poorest.

Mums always ask their three-year-olds for permission before hugging them, government negotiators never forget to say "pretty please" when begging for custody of its criminals, euthanasia is legal, and the leaders of Pagalina are given the nod by their predecessors. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Pagalina's national animal is the Capuchin Monkey, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Paglinity.

Pagalina is ranked 3,860th in the world and 177th in Balder for Safest, scoring 135.04 on the Bubble-Rapp Safety Rating.
