The Kingdom of Prydania is a gargantuan, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by King Tobias III Loðbrók with an even hand, and renowned for its national health service, ubiquitous missile silos, and stringent health and safety legislation. The hard-nosed, devout population of 18.429 billion Prydanians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The enormous, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Healthcare, Education, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Býkonsviði. The average income tax rate is 87.7%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Prydanian economy, worth a remarkable 2,252 trillion Krosses a year, is quite specialized and led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing, Tourism, and Arms Manufacturing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 122,251 Krosses, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The government has ordered a moratorium on referenda, school lockers are filled with fancy underwear, citizens recently voted in favour of declaring bubblewrap an 'abomination of nature', and accusations of corruption stick when the accused are long-gone. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Prydania's national animal is the Stag, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Laurenist Messianism.

Prydania is ranked 255,592^nd in the world and 5,319^th in The North Pacific for Largest Gambling Industry, scoring -7.3 on the Kelly Criterion Productivity Index.
