The Game of Paldea is a massive, cultured nation, ruled by Eevee with an even hand, and notable for its compulsory military service, complete lack of prisons, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, democratic population of 2.801 billion Inklings have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The enormous government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Welfare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Hyrule. The average income tax rate is 84.3%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Paldean economy, worth 272 trillion Win Coins a year, is quite specialized and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Automobile Manufacturing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 97,374 Win Coins, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Getting milk from the local corner store no longer requires donning advanced hiking gear, elementary school students are required to master Bach's Chaconne in D before graduation, the Paldea Automotive Racing Series draws millions of spectators annually while those near the tracks complain about the noise, and a passport is literally priceless. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Paldea's national animal is the Goomba, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Gamerism.

Paldea is ranked 22,137^th in the world and 334^th in Europe for Most Scientifically Advanced, scoring 264.8 on the Kurzweil Singularity Index.
