The Glories Infinite of Gay Parrot is a gargantuan, socially progressive nation, renowned for its museums and concert halls, barren, inhospitable landscape, and absence of drug laws. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic, humorless population of 23.609 billion Gay Parrots live in a state of perpetual fear, as a complete breakdown of social order has led to the rise of order through biker gangs.

The tiny, liberal, pro-business, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Social Policy, Education, and Defense. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Céline-Dion. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 5.9%.

The strong Gay Parrot economy, worth a remarkable 2,260 trillion metzas a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Book Publishing industry, with significant contributions from Soda Sales, Information Technology, and Cheese Exports. Average income is 95,763 metzas, but there is an enormous disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 611,895 per year while the poor average 6,145, a ratio of 99.6 to 1.

Anti-government web sites are springing up, the tenet of free speech is held dear, the nation leads Nudist Dreamland in per capita stalking, and counselors have to sign pledges supporting gay rights before they can speak to any patients. Crime, especially youth-related, is all-pervasive, probably because of the absence of a police force. Gay Parrot's national animal is the homie, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Gay Parrot is ranked 137,290^th in the world and 49^th in Nudist Dreamland for Most Subsidized Industry, scoring 466.99 on the Gilded Widget Scale.
