The Eternal Misfortune of Pencil Sharpeners 2 is a gargantuan, cultured nation, ruled by Panda Protector with an iron fist, and remarkable for its infamous sell-swords, sprawling nuclear power plants, and complete absence of social welfare. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless population of 18.75 billion Pencil Sharpeners Twice 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, corrupt, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Industry, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Pandapolis. The average income tax rate is 99.3%.
The frighteningly efficient Pencil Sharpeners Twice economy, worth an astonishing 22,126 trillion Pencil shavings a year, is broadly diversified and mostly comprised of black market activity, especially in Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, Retail, and Soda Sales. Average income is a breathtaking 1,180,057 Pencil shavings, but there is a vast disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 10,199,724 per year while the poor average 22,309, a ratio of 457 to 1.
Possession of tomato seeds with intent to garden is a criminal offence, the newest shade developed by Pencil Sharpeners 2's dye industry has been dubbed 'Agent Orange', golden statues of Pencils line the memorial avenues of the Funerary District, and the number of students attending university has reached a record high. Crime, especially youth-related, is so common that it is unusual to encounter someone following the law, perhaps because of the country's complete lack of prisons. Pencil Sharpeners 2's national animal is the Pencil, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Amerionism.
Pencil Sharpeners 2 is ranked 373rd in the world and 9th in the South Pacific for Most Cultured, scoring 544 on the Snufflebottom-Wiggendum Pentatonic Scale.
