The Tasty States of Paprika Islands is a titanic, socially progressive nation, ruled by Ginger with an even hand, and renowned for its lack of airports, frequent executions, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate population of 22.078 billion Paprikashians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social and economic equality; they tend to view other countries as corrupted by the hollow pageantry of sham elections.

The large government prioritizes Education, although Welfare, Healthcare, and Environment are also considered important, while Spirituality and Defense aren't funded at all. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Spice Rack. The average income tax rate is 68.0%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The thriving Paprika Islandsian economy, worth a remarkable 1,560 trillion spices 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 Tourism industry, with major contributions from Book Publishing, Basket Weaving, and Trout Farming. Average income is 70,683 spices, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Windows in Spice Rack don't have much of a view, children are afraid to go out at night due to the ubiquity of hardened jaywalkers, wigged-out hunters report playing croquet with the Queen of Hearts, and bike rage is all the rage. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Paprika Islands's national animal is the fox, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is cooking.

Paprika Islands is ranked 90,992^nd in the world and 3^rd in The Sweet Ubiquity for Most Advanced Law Enforcement, scoring 3,018.23 on the Orwell Orderliness Index.
