The Principality of Purple Rain 19 is a colossal, orderly nation, ruled by Prince with an iron fist, and notable for its barren, inhospitable landscape, zero percent divorce rate, and pith helmet sales. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless, devout population of 5.944 billion Purple Rain 19ians are ruled without fear or favor by a psychotic dictator, who outlaws just about everything and refers to the populace as "my little playthings."

The relatively small, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of St Paul. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 38.1%.

The frighteningly efficient Purple Rain 19ian economy, worth a remarkable 1,314 trillion marks a year, is broadly diversified and mostly comprised of black market activity, especially in Arms Manufacturing, Woodchip Exports, Uranium Mining, and Basket Weaving. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an amazing 221,219 marks, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 742,452 per year while the poor average 48,915, a ratio of 15.2 to 1.

Construction of the Really Big Hadron Collider is underway, commuters are denied boarding for attempting to bring packed lunches onto trains, the urinary fragrance of seedier establishments is thankfully hidden by the smell of stale smoke, and years of counter-terrorism planning are foiled by small details. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Purple Rain 19's national animal is the fox, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its national religion is Love Symbol.

Purple Rain 19 is ranked 89,567th in the world and 548th in NationStates for Largest Populations, with 5.94 billion capita.
