The Republic of Patailla is a massive, environmentally stunning nation, remarkable for its smutty television, national health service, and irreverence towards religion. The compassionate, democratic population of 3.301 billion Pataillans enjoy a sensible mix of personal and economic freedoms, while the political process is open and the people's right to vote held sacrosanct.

The large, outspoken government is primarily concerned with Healthcare, although Education, Law & Order, and Welfare are also considered important, while Spirituality receives no funds. The average income tax rate is 52.5%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The strong Pataillan economy, worth 196 trillion Euros a year, is led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Woodchip Exports, and Arms Manufacturing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 59,647 Euros, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Snitches get riches, proprietary charger leads are now a pain for electric cars as well as cellphones, videogames like 'Equalia: Knights of Self-Confidence' are proving inexplicably unpopular, and plain-clothes police officers follow Dàguó tourists everywhere they go. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Patailla's national animal is the Rabbit, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Patailla is ranked 176,907th in the world and 3,887th in The North Pacific for Largest Gambling Industry, scoring 63.66 on the Kelly Criterion Productivity Index.
