The Oppressed Peoples of Praly is a very large, efficient nation, notable for its free-roaming dinosaurs, otherworldly petting zoo, and punitive income tax rates. The hard-nosed population of 447 million Pralyians 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 medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Administration, and Industry. The average income tax rate is 53.3%.
The all-consuming Pralyian economy, worth 39.9 trillion guilders a year, is led by the Trout Farming industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Arms Manufacturing, and Information Technology. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 89,342 guilders, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.2 times as much as the poorest.
People with hippopotomonstrosesquippedaliophobia faint upon diagnosis, citizens are regularly arrested in queues for 'loitering', drunk drivers are sentenced to death, and family trees become bare as entire branches are lopped off. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Praly's national animal is the peacock, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.
Praly is ranked 185,454th in the world and 3rd in The Polygonium for Least Corrupt Governments, with 92.91 percentage of bribes refused.
