The United Republic of Plagriu is a massive, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by President Dinski Digient Dixon with an even hand, and notable for its museums and concert halls, compulsory military service, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, devout population of 3.487 billion Plagriuans have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The relatively small government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Dimber City. The average income tax rate is 41.9%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Plagriuan economy, worth 522 trillion Puris a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Arms Manufacturing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 149,949 Puris, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Court verdicts are predictable to within a hundredth of a percentage point, incarcerated crime lords manage their empires from massage tables, the tax agency is feared more than serial killers and terrorists, and factories grind to a halt every time there is an election. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. Plagriu's national animal is the Dragnor, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Plagriu is ranked 60,979^th in the world and 117^th in Carcassonne for Lowest Crime Rates, with 71.64 law-abiding acts per hour.
