The Kingdom of Prayd is a titanic, efficient nation, ruled by Glavis with an even hand, and renowned for its pith helmet sales, state-planned economy, and irreverence towards religion. The compassionate population of 14.316 billion Praydians have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The government — a sprawling, bureaucracy-choked, corrupt morass — juggles the competing demands of Education, Healthcare, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Karnsbern. The average income tax rate is 95.6%.

The frighteningly efficient Praydian economy, worth a remarkable 1,660 trillion Margoes a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is highly specialized, is mostly made up of the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Furniture Restoration. Average income is an impressive 116,011 Margoes, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The government subsidizes those who produce the worst results, the 'Museum Of Stuff We Stole' is a tourist favourite, there's a literal nanny state for the legions of children taken by social services, and carpet bombing has decimated Brasilistan's landscape and population. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Prayd's national animal is the Seal, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans.

Prayd is ranked 303,884th in the world and 11,518th in Osiris for Largest Gambling Industry, scoring -13.25 on the Kelly Criterion Productivity Index.
