The Paradoxical Queendom of The Perplexed Angel is a gargantuan, safe nation, notable for its keen interest in outer space, frequent executions, and compulsory military service. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless, devout population of 40.87 billion Perplexed Angels are ruled with an iron fist by the corrupt, dictatorship government, which oppresses anyone who isn't on the board of a Fortune 500 company. Large corporations tend to be above the law, and use their financial clout to gain ever-increasing government benefits at the expense of the poor and unemployed.

The relatively small, moralistic, pro-business, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Industry. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 15.7%.

The all-consuming a Perplexed Angel economy, worth a remarkable 4,947 trillion Dollars a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Uranium Mining, Automobile Manufacturing, and Gambling. Average income is an impressive 121,055 Dollars, but there is a vast disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 858,359 per year while the poor average 5,691, a ratio of 150 to 1.

Immigrant Maxtopians are routinely sold on popular internet auction sites, senior citizens can usually be found doing heavy manual labour, a crusade against barbaric religious practices has begun, and young children are regularly seen wagering pocket money at blackjack tables. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force. The Perplexed Angel's national animal is the Dove, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to toxic air pollution.

The Perplexed Angel is ranked 274,046th in the world and 25th in Altino for Most Cultured, scoring 58 on the Snufflebottom-Wiggendum Pentatonic Scale.
