The Republic of Prosperic is a huge, cultured nation, notable for its complete lack of prisons, punitive income tax rates, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, hard-working, democratic population of 717 million Prospericans are known throughout the region for their efficiency and work ethic, as well as their general suspicion of leisure.

The large, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Administration, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Kotthagen. The average income tax rate is 72.6%.

The frighteningly efficient Prosperican economy, worth 87.8 trillion Serics a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Beef-Based Agriculture, and Information Technology. Average income is an impressive 122,458 Serics, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 4.5 times as much as the poorest.

Half-submerged and flooded seaside hotels are technically still next to the beach, civil servants refuse to enforce government regulations for fear of wider economic impact, one year's corporation tax from three international megacorporations has funded one dozen shiny black pencils for Leader's office, and Kotthagen is a police state during international summits. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Prosperic's national animal is the Prosperic Beaver, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Prosperic is ranked 297,319^th in the world and 1,234^th in the Plains of Perdition for Largest Black Market, with 24.0 billion Standard Monetary Units.
