The Nomadic Peoples of Penguin Gypsies is a gargantuan, efficient nation, renowned for its absence of drug laws. The hard-working, democratic population of 13.59 billion Penguin Gypsies live in a state of perpetual fear, as a complete breakdown of social order has led to the rise of order through biker gangs.

The tiny, liberal, pro-business, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Welfare, and Healthcare. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 7.8%.

The thriving Penguin Gypsy economy, worth 741 trillion Antarctican doubloons a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Trout Farming industry, with significant contributions from Retail, Door-to-door Insurance Sales, and Gambling. Average income is 54,568 Antarctican doubloons, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 193,156 per year while the poor average 11,130, a ratio of 17.4 to 1.

Crime is a problem, with the police force struggling against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. Penguin Gypsies's national animal is the Mermaid, which can occasionally be seen avoiding garbage in the nation's murky oceans.

Penguin Gypsies is ranked 221,589th in the world and 43rd in Gypsy Lands for Most Advanced Defense Forces, scoring 1,051.78 on the Total War Preparedness Rating.
