The Most Srn Rpublic of Parpura is a massive, orderly nation, ruled by Imprial Srnity On High with an iron fist, and renowned for its enslaved workforce, aversion to nipples, and absence of drug laws. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless, devout population of 4.556 billion Parpurians are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."

The relatively small, corrupt, well-organized government is primarily concerned with Defense, with Industry, Spirituality, and Administration also on the agenda, while Education and Environment receive no funds. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Grandios. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 11.2%.

The frighteningly efficient Parpuran economy, worth a remarkable 1,018 trillion rublas a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Retail, Uranium Mining, and Gambling. Black market activity is rampant. Average income is an amazing 223,630 rublas, but there is an enormous disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 1,362,555 per year while the poor average 16,243, a ratio of 83.9 to 1.

Foreign governments are looking into weaponizing the infamous Parpuran bee, slavers view "what did your last slave die of" as a request for a demonstration, penniless buskers are singing for their supper, and science labs across the country languish in cobwebs as the government turns its attentions to spiritual matters. Crime, especially youth-related, is all-pervasive, perhaps because of the country's complete lack of prisons. Parpura's national animal is the Bison, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Parpism.

Parpura is ranked 241,601st in the world and 7,508th in The East Pacific for Highest Average Tax Rates, with 11.21 Effective Tax Rate.
