The Commonwealth of Parynome is a huge, environmentally stunning nation, notable for its anti-smoking policies, ban on automobiles, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate population of 722 million Parynomeans are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The large government juggles the competing demands of Healthcare, Education, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Piresa. The average income tax rate is 59.2%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The sizeable but underdeveloped Parynomean economy, worth 25.6 trillion guilders a year, is quite specialized and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Trout Farming, Information Technology, and Uranium Mining. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 35,494 guilders, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Serial commas clarify the relationship between one's lackeys, the taxpayers, and kinsfolk, veteran cops reminisce over their heavy armor days, scientists regularly clone human beings for research purposes, and the nation's apology for those it has executed in the last year has come a little late for some. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Parynome's national animal is the emu, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Parynome is ranked 251,590^th in the world and 315^th in Refugia for Most Patriotic, with 1.02 flags saluted per person per day.
