The Holy Republic of Punjab Khalistan is a gargantuan, environmentally stunning nation, remarkable for its compulsory military service, ban on automobiles, and stringent health and safety legislation. The hard-nosed population of 37.43 billion Punjab Khalistanians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The government — a sprawling, bureaucracy-choked, socially-minded morass — juggles the competing demands of Welfare, Healthcare, and Public Transport. The average income tax rate is 74.4%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The large but sluggish Punjab Khalistanian economy, worth 665 trillion khalistani rupees a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is quite specialized, is led by the Book Publishing industry, with major contributions from Furniture Restoration, Information Technology, and Basket Weaving. Average income is 17,781 khalistani rupees, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Voting is voluntary and cars are banned. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Punjab Khalistan's national animal is the elephant, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Punjab Khalistan is ranked 92,322^nd in the world and 2^nd in NationStates Bus Terminal for Lowest Crime Rates, with 66.86 law-abiding acts per hour.
