The Kingdom of Pllacentta is a mid-sized, socially progressive nation, notable for its barren, inhospitable landscape. The hard-nosed, democratic population of 62 million Pllacenttans 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 Defense, Welfare, and Law & Order. The average income tax rate is 22.8%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The sizeable but inefficient Pllacenttan economy, worth 2.83 trillion USDS a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Soda Sales industry, with major contributions from Door-to-door Insurance Sales, Gambling, and Woodchip Exports. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 45,597 USDS, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.3 times as much as the poorest.

Murder suspects plead the 'there was a rat beneath his chef's hat' defense, all major public areas are watched by police surveillance cameras, organ donation is compulsory, and a firework a day does not in fact keep the doctor away. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Pllacentta's national animal is the cat, which can occasionally be seen sifting through garbage in the nation's cities.

Pllacentta is ranked 207,144^th in the world and 887^th in Europeia for Largest Trout Fishing Sector, scoring 194.11 on the Nemo Depletion Efficiency Index.
