The Republic of Paraskevia is a massive, cultured nation, notable for its rampant corporate plagiarism, daily referendums, and restrictive gun laws. The hard-working, cynical, devout population of 2.406 billion Paraskevians are highly moralistic and fiercely conservative, in the sense that they tend to believe most things should be outlawed. People who have good jobs and work quietly at them are lauded; others are viewed with suspicion.

The medium-sized, moralistic government prioritizes Spirituality, although Welfare, Defense, and Education are also considered important. The average income tax rate is 24.0%.

The strong Paraskevian economy, worth 153 trillion Drachmas a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Woodchip Exports industry, with major contributions from Uranium Mining, Automobile Manufacturing, and Basket Weaving. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 63,667 Drachmas, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.2 times as much as the poorest.

Nations that kill a Paraskevian can expect a strongly worded letter, rumor has it that Leader has won three lotteries in a row, interest in globalism never flags, and lobbyists are trying to convince government to recategorize most natural disasters as "non-critical naturogenic inconveniences". Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, despite the fact that it is difficult to make it through a day without breaking one of the country's many laws. Paraskevia's national animal is the Eagle, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to toxic air pollution.

Paraskevia is ranked 244,765^th in the world and 25^th in Ejiro for Most Eco-Friendly Governments, scoring 83 on the Dolphin Recycling Awareness Index.
