The Free Land of Perizea is a very large, environmentally stunning nation, notable for its irreverence towards religion, absence of drug laws, and suspicion of poets. The compassionate, hard-working, democratic population of 109 million Perizeans hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.

The relatively small, liberal government prioritizes Welfare, with Healthcare, Education, and Defense also on the agenda, while Spirituality and International Aid are ignored. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 9.9%.

The strong Perizean economy, worth 5.73 trillion florias a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Gambling industry, with major contributions from Cheese Exports, Tourism, and Book Publishing. Average income is 52,595 florias, with the richest citizens earning 6.8 times as much as the poorest.

Pop sensation "Jack and the Holograms" is storming the charts, male friends are often accompanied by a female relative in order to prove their 'straightness', diminutive Perizean generals are feared for their aggressiveness, and the Coast Guard is pioneering a quixotic program to train fish. Crime, especially youth-related, is a problem, with the police force struggling against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. Perizea's national animal is the swan, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Perizea is ranked 201,137^th in the world and 376^th in Refugia for Most Income Equality, scoring 14.81 on the Marx-Engels Emancipation Scale.
