The Ersialistlik Organisatsioon of Perno Comitee is a massive, cultured nation, ruled by Jan Von Schpukenragen with an even hand, and notable for its compulsory military service, avowedly heterosexual populace, and frequent executions. The compassionate population of 2.1 billion Ersialists are prohibited from doing almost everything except voting, which they do timidly and conservatively.

The medium-sized, moralistic, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Healthcare, and Defense. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Pärnu. The average income tax rate is 48.0%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The strong Ersialist economy, worth 145 trillion Credit Cards a year, is quite specialized and dominated by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Basket Weaving, and Cheese Exports. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 69,245 Credit Cards, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.7 times as much as the poorest.

The question "please would you...?" is usually laden with passive aggression, the minority inevitably have their addenda vetoed, Scoutmasters debate whether luxury log cabins defeat the purpose of camping, and it's best not to ask what goes into Pärnu Crispy Fried Tofu's secret blend of herbs and spices. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Perno Comitee's national animal is the ESP Spy Dolphin, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans, and its national religion is Ersialism.

Perno Comitee is ranked 42,834^th in the world and 847^th in the Rejected Realms for Most Authoritarian, with 1,975.77 milliStalins.
