Organ donation rates have hit a new low, citizens can be frequently spotted going about their business stark naked, scientists regularly clone human beings for research purposes, and it is illegal to make racist remarks in public. Crime -- especially youth-related -- is well under control, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Pinguinum's national animal is the penguin, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its currency is the pingu.
