The Pink Holy Lucky Christmas of Petronellania is a massive, safe nation, ruled by Santa Claus with an even hand, and remarkable for its avowedly heterosexual populace, daily referendums, and digital currency. The compassionate, democratic, devout population of 3.327 billion Nellans are prohibited from doing almost everything except voting, which they do timidly and conservatively.

The enormous, moralistic, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Education, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Yggdrassil. The average income tax rate is 96.2%.

The frighteningly efficient Nellan economy, worth 527 trillion Candy Cane Gold Bars a year, is dominated by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Cheese Exports, and Woodchip Exports. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 158,433 Candy Cane Gold Bars, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Tetris has been banned for its graphic violent content, pharmaceutical companies emphatically promise that "your pills are in the mail" rather than admit any supply shortfall, a blood-red mark on the doorframe means a building must be passed over for destruction, and children must be board certified to append "Jr" to their name. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Petronellania's national animal is the Bat, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Athyism.

Petronellania is ranked 5,344th in the world and 142nd in The North Pacific for Most Subsidized Industry, scoring 11,827.6 on the Gilded Widget Scale.
