== History ==
=== Origins ===
Forced labor has had a consistent and widespread presence throughout the history of the Packilvanian penal system. Convict labor has been used extensively on infrastructure projects throughout the vast nation, and the [[Demirite dynasty]] established the first organized penal colonies in the country. These outposts were typically located in remote regions of the Packilvanian interior, and were effectively used to both isolate prisoner populations from the rest of society while also utilizing them to develop and settle sparsely populated areas.
The usage of penal colonies expanded rapidly after the fall of the Demirite dynasty and the rise of the [[Packilvanian Communist Party]], which increasingly subjected both ordinary criminals and political prisoners to the system. The colonies were expected to not only rehabilitate through the supposed joys of socialist labor, but to also support the Communist Party's new economic policies. The Party sought to restructure the Packilvanian economy as an autarky centered around collective farms and mass industrialization. The loss of foreign trade required that entire industries and supply chains now had to be brought onshore, often in a highly inefficient manner. The Party viewed prison populations as a pool of labor that could effectively be forced into low- and semi-skilled positions that now needed to be filled. The penal colonies, once an artifact of the Packilvanian frontier, would now become increasingly integrated into the nation's overall economic structure.
=== Abolishment and Legacy ===
(The rest of this is WIP seriously just ignore it)
Pax Drones are legally citizens of [[Packilvania]] however they have sold their labour for a period of 7 to 21 years to creditors due to defaulting on debt. According to the [[Council of Ministers of Packilvania|Packilvanian government]], this policy was designed to enabled poor families to accumulate and protect their wealth even if they have fallen on hard times. Indeed, [[Packilvania]] has become one of the wealthiest nations in the world by total assets owned by citizens since the policy was introduced. However, analysts argue that wealth generation in [[Packilvania]] has arisen due to economic growth and high stock prices.
