The Aeque of Free Las Pinas is a massive, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Arch-Commissar Ryu Sora Haruki with a fair hand, and remarkable for its state-planned economy, keen interest in outer space, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful population of 2.004 billion Pinjins 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 medium-sized, socially-minded, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Industry, Education, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Xansen. The average income tax rate is 76.1%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Pinji economy, worth 261 trillion Intergalactic Standard Units a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector is led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing, Tourism, and Retail. Average income is an impressive 130,577 Intergalactic Standard Units, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Customs officers pretend not to hear shouts of "HELP LET ME OUT!" emerging from diplomatic bags, orphans would rather live their life of luxury than be adopted by prospective parents, foreign 'investors' have been taking a great interest in the new secret shuttle, and bins outnumber trees in city parks. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. Free Las Pinas's national animal is the Blue-striped Tiger, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Free Las Pinas is ranked 208,815^th in the world and 708^th in 10000 Islands for Largest Mining Sector, scoring -7.07 on the Blue Sky Asbestos Index.
