The Borderlands of Prictopia is a tiny, socially progressive nation, notable for its compulsory military service, absence of drug laws, and complete absence of social welfare. The democratic population of 10 million Prictopians enjoy extensive civil freedoms, particularly in social issues, while business tends to be more regulated.

The tiny, liberal government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Education, and Spirituality. The average income tax rate is 8.7%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The Prictopian economy, worth 325 billion dollars a year, is led by the Pizza Delivery industry, with major contributions from Cheese Exports, Retail, and Arms Manufacturing. Average income is 32,567 dollars, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.7 times as much as the poorest.

Getting an infected tattoo is considered a rite of passage in Prictopia, the government recently relinquished its monopoly on the mail service, scientists earn more grant money for reproducing old experiments than trying anything new, and the government seizes all major gold finds. Crime is moderate, with the police force struggling against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. Prictopia's national animal is the Skunk, which can occasionally be seen sifting through garbage in the nation's cities.

Prictopia is ranked 297,422^nd in the world and 81^st in The Hole To Hide In for Most Eco-Friendly Governments, scoring -4.47 on the Dolphin Recycling Awareness Index.
