The Absolutist Kingdom of Prolespia is a massive, efficient nation, ruled by The Supreme King Johnny Harrison with an iron fist, and remarkable for its museums and concert halls, sprawling nuclear power plants, and devotion to social welfare. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, devout population of 3.477 billion Prospians are ruled by a mostly-benevolent dictator, who grants the populace the freedom to live their own lives but watches carefully for anyone to slip up.
The large, corrupt, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Education, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Larredown. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 84.3%.
The frighteningly efficient Prolespian economy, worth 603 trillion Propius a year, is led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Retail, and Book Publishing. Black market activity is rampant. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an impressive 173,520 Propius, but there is a large disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 853,568 per year while the poor average 20,143, a ratio of 42.4 to 1.
Time flies when you're not having fun, posing for pictures is an integral part of military training, laser-wielding robots are taking aim at human hearts, and undergrads find their professors' mushroom experiments less psychedelic than expected. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Prolespia's national animal is the Drärse, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Harrisonism.
Prolespia is ranked 113,740th in the world and 3,994th in Lazarus for Most Armed, with 0.38 weapons per person.
