The Republic of Pm9283 is a very large, pleasant nation, renowned for its barren, inhospitable landscape. The hard-nosed, hard-working population of 219 million Pm9283ians 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 relatively small government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Education. The average income tax rate is 18.1%.

The Pm9283ian economy, worth 10.3 trillion dollars a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Book Publishing industry, with major contributions from Woodchip Exports, Pizza Delivery, and Retail. Average income is 46,962 dollars, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.7 times as much as the poorest.

Wealthy parents-to-be can select their perfect baby, the population's jaw muscles put sharks to shame, organ donation is compulsory, and TV shows must meet strict ethnicity quotas. Crime is relatively low, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Pm9283's national animal is the porpoise, which can occasionally be seen avoiding garbage in the nation's murky oceans.

Pm9283 is ranked 166,682^nd in the world and 34^th in Distorted Memories for Most Developed, scoring 54.46 on the Human Development Index.
