The Kingdom of Pyreae is a very large, safe nation, renowned for its barren, inhospitable landscape, daily referendums, and irreverence towards religion. The hard-working, democratic population of 327 million Pyreaeans enjoy a sensible mix of personal and economic freedoms, while the political process is open and the people's right to vote held sacrosanct.

The relatively small, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Welfare, Education, and Defense. The average income tax rate is 14.9%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The Pyreaean economy, worth 19.4 trillion Great Pyreaen Pounds a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Retail, Door-to-door Insurance Sales, and Uranium Mining. Average income is 59,293 Great Pyreaen Pounds, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.6 times as much as the poorest.

Gambling is outlawed, snitches get riches, tradesmen will knock 10% off their fees if customers pay cash, and Bigtopian interference in domestic elections is always democratically sanctioned. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Pyreae's national animal is the Eagle, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to toxic air pollution.

Pyreae is ranked 139,072^nd in the world and 107^th in Corsair for Most Corrupt Governments, with 5.46 kickbacks per hour.
