The Grand Duchy of Paros Island is a gargantuan, environmentally stunning nation, renowned for its multi-spousal wedding ceremonies, compulsory military service, and irreverence towards religion. The hard-nosed, hard-working population of 35.839 billion Paros Islandians are either ruled by a sleek, efficient government or a conglomerate of multinational corporations; it's difficult to tell which.

The relatively small government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Industry. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 10.5%.

The powerhouse Paros Islandian economy, worth a remarkable 1,973 trillion euros a year, is quite specialized and led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Beef-Based Agriculture, Pizza Delivery, and Arms Manufacturing. Average income is 55,061 euros, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 186,748 per year while the poor average 11,984, a ratio of 15.6 to 1.

UFO sightings are listed daily in the morning news, radio shows frequently feature people denouncing religion, truth is often impossible to tell from fiction on the evening news, and retirement homes are often fitted with luxurious suites. Crime, especially youth-related, is moderate. Paros Island's national animal is the fish, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Paros Island is ranked 232,445^th in the world and 6^th in Greek Islands for Lowest Crime Rates, with 55.69 law-abiding acts per hour.
