The Snowy yet delightful world of Pingu is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by Pingu with a fair hand, and remarkable for its multi-spousal wedding ceremonies, irreverence towards religion, and spontaneously combusting cars. The hard-working, democratic population of 11.016 billion Penguins 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 relatively small, liberal, pro-business, outspoken government prioritizes Education, with Public Transport, Defense, and Environment also on the agenda, while Spirituality and International Aid are ignored. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Amundsen. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 10.7%.

The very strong Pinguan economy, worth 422 trillion Minoan tala a year, is quite specialized and led by the Pizza Delivery industry, with major contributions from Trout Farming, Soda Sales, and Woodchip Exports. Average income is 38,360 Minoan tala, but there is a large disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 181,044 per year while the poor average 4,818, a ratio of 37.6 to 1.

Royalist is the most offensive slur in the Pinguan language, suburban backyards are seized by the government and turned into national parks, there have been reports of people marrying housepets, and children spend all morning taking out a comma and all afternoon putting it back in again. Crime is a serious problem, with the police force struggling against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. Pingu's national animal is the fish, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans.

Pingu is ranked 254,808^th in the world and 46^th in Antarctica for Most Subsidized Industry, scoring -3.16 on the Gilded Widget Scale.
