The Endorse me of Antarctic Empires is a gargantuan, socially progressive nation, ruled by PNG with a fair hand, and renowned for its museums and concert halls, daily referendums, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, democratic, devout population of 14.109 billion Penguins hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.

The enormous government juggles the competing demands of Healthcare, Education, and Environment. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Penguinopolis. The average income tax rate is 71.9%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The strong Penguin economy, worth 868 trillion Ice Cubes a year, is quite specialized and dominated by the Book Publishing industry, with significant contributions from Trout Farming, Basket Weaving, and Information Technology. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 61,557 Ice Cubes, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Police struggle to solve crimes due to the lack of fingerprint records, five-year-olds chanting "Little Miss Muffet" are accused of bullying arachnophobes, small children are learning a lot of new words from a teacher with Tourette Syndrome, and party leaders rely on horoscopes to create "ticket balance". Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Antarctic Empires's national animal is the Penguin, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans, and its national religion is Penguin.

Antarctic Empires is ranked 48,768th in the world and 1,094th in the South Pacific for Lowest Crime Rates, with 74.42 law-abiding acts per hour.
