The Panderers of Pandaland MMIXX is a gargantuan, orderly nation, ruled by Panderboy with an iron fist, and notable for its ubiquitous missile silos, keen interest in outer space, and stringent health and safety legislation. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless, devout population of 11.019 billion Pandaland MMIXXians are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."
The large, corrupt, moralistic government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Bamboo City. The average income tax rate is 81.0%.
The frighteningly efficient Pandaland MMIXXian economy, worth a remarkable 1,880 trillion Bamboo Shoots a year, is mostly comprised of black market activity, especially in Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, Woodchip Exports, and Book Publishing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 170,704 Bamboo Shoots, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 4.0 times as much as the poorest.
The government seizes corporate assets it deems 'scary enough', teenagers stay out into the wee hours of the morning "stargazing", the government believes there is no problem that raising taxes won't fix, and the Holy Office of the Inquisition is the highest court in the land. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Pandaland MMIXX's national animal is the Giant Panda, which can occasionally be seen sifting through garbage in the nation's cities, and its national religion is Bambooism.
Pandaland MMIXX is ranked 11,883rd in the world and 74th in the West Pacific for Most Patriotic, with 64.14 flags saluted per person per day.
