The Free Republic of Poquaoi is a gargantuan, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Me with a fair hand, and notable for its multi-spousal wedding ceremonies, irreverence towards religion, and absence of drug laws. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful population of 13.525 billion Poqs are free to do what they want with their own bodies, and vote for whomever they like in elections; if they go into business, however, they are regulated to within an inch of their lives.

The enormous, liberal, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Education, Environment, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Guerville. The income tax rate is 100%.

The frighteningly efficient Poquaoian economy, worth a remarkable 3,714 trillion Koches a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is highly specialized, is led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism and Book Publishing. Average income is an amazing 274,649 Koches, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

There's nothing more gay than bleeding for your nation, the fire brigade often deal with cases of burnt toast, cyber-crime and tin-foil hat sales are both increasing at record rates, and enemy navies sail within bombardment range of major coastal cities with impunity. Crime is totally unknown. Poquaoi's national animal is the Armadillo, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is No.

Poquaoi is ranked 315,147th in the world and 450th in Refugia for Most Primitive, scoring -848.29 on the Scary Big Number Scale.
