The Contemplating of Panagouge is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by Rewan Demontay with a fair hand, and renowned for its national health service, multi-spousal wedding ceremonies, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate, hard-working, democratic, cheerful, devout population of 12.451 billion Panagougeans hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.

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

The frighteningly efficient Panagougean economy, worth a remarkable 5,861 trillion Dragoonos a year, is mostly comprised of black market activity, especially in Information Technology, Tourism, Book Publishing, and Retail. Average income is an amazing 470,780 Dragoonos, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.0 times as much as the poorest.

School children asked "what is two times two?" are likely to form a symposium to discuss how different answers make them feel, Panagougean diplomacy is by the book, elections are won by the candidate who makes the best 'yo mama' jokes, and shopping comes bagged and tagged. Crime is totally unknown. Panagouge's national animal is the Nothingness, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Void Doctrine.

Panagouge is ranked 169^th in the world and 1^st in Cataclyst Order for Highest Foreign Aid Spending, scoring 8,374.21 on the Clooney Contribution Index.
