The Dogland of Pawlandia is a massive, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Lucy Tail with an even hand, and notable for its compulsory military service, anti-smoking policies, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate population of 1.383 billion Pawlandians 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 medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Law & Order, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Pawston. The average income tax rate is 70.9%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The all-consuming Pawlandian economy, worth 161 trillion dogllars a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Basket Weaving, Information Technology, and Book Publishing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 116,973 dogllars, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.8 times as much as the poorest.

Industry tycoons rarely hide their misdeeds due to the government's habit of bailing them out, the Foreign Ministry thinks an eye for an eye is a blindingly good idea, governments opposing Pawlandia are beset by rebels, and denied drugs and entertainment the nation's youth are taking to petty crime to alleviate their boredom. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Pawlandia's national animal is the dog, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Christianity.

Pawlandia is ranked 41,392^nd in the world and 2^nd in Bomber Dogs for Most Developed, scoring 79.35 on the Human Development Index.
