The Republic of The Psittacines is a massive, efficient nation, ruled by Mathieu Perroquet with an even hand, and notable for its smutty television, keen interest in outer space, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, democratic population of 2.893 billion Psittacinesians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The large government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of City of Aves. The average income tax rate is 85.4%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Psittacinesian economy, worth 429 trillion Pellets a year, is led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Information Technology and Book Publishing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 148,356 Pellets, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Over a third of the seats in sports stadiums have been removed to make room for female-only commodes, copyright laws have been abolished, the song 'They Got an Awful Lot of Coffee in The Psittacines' is a smash hit, and drunk drivers are sent to rehabilitation paid for by the government. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. The Psittacines's national animal is the Sun Parakeet, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Druidry.

The Psittacines is ranked 10,268^th in the world and 31^st in Conch Kingdom for Most Advanced Public Education, scoring 10,676.4 on the Edu-tellignce® Test Score.
