The Sindicato Nacional del Crime of Prybourne is a titanic, cultured nation, ruled by Doña Griselda Alacrán with an even hand, and remarkable for its museums and concert halls, public floggings, and complete absence of social welfare. The hard-nosed, hard-working, devout population of 23.479 billion Prybourneans are either ruled by a sleek, efficient government or a conglomerate of multinational corporations; it's difficult to tell which.

The minute, corrupt government, or what there is of one, juggles the competing demands of Defense, Industry, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Opulencia. Income tax is unheard of.

The frighteningly efficient Prybournean economy, worth a remarkable 5,178 trillion Pentes a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is broadly diversified and led by the Retail industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Arms Manufacturing, and Soda Sales. Average income is an amazing 220,549 Pentes, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.3 times as much as the poorest.

The flight attendant who draws the short straw is on "cockpit bucket duty", burgers often list "miscellaneous meats" in their ingredients, the military has gone fission for more funding, and 4-year-olds are often found reminiscing about the 'good old days'. Crime is totally unknown. Prybourne's national animal is the White Java Sparrow, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to toxic air pollution.

Prybourne is ranked 175,450^th in the world and 50^th in Anteria for Largest Trout Fishing Sector, scoring 515.28 on the Nemo Depletion Efficiency Index.
