The People's Republic of Prodal is a colossal, safe nation, notable for its sprawling nuclear power plants, fear of technology, and complete absence of social welfare. The hard-nosed, hard-working population of 2.728 billion Prodalians 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 relatively small, moralistic government prioritizes Law & Order, although Industry, Defense, and Public Transport are also considered important, while International Aid and Welfare receive no funds. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 9.6%.

The very strong Prodalian economy, worth 166 trillion Ducats a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Cheese Exports industry, with major contributions from Door-to-door Insurance Sales, Furniture Restoration, and Uranium Mining. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 61,003 Ducats, with the richest citizens earning 8.4 times as much as the poorest.

Recognised healthcare professionals treat diabetes with a grain of sugar in a barrel of water, sociologists can charge whatever fee they like as the nation tries to find itself, glamping Prodalians won't sleep in a tent that doesn't include a Jacuzzi, and The Very Hungry Caterpillar has been banned for advocating gluttony. Crime is moderate, possibly because it is difficult to make it through a day without breaking one of the country's many regulations. Prodal's national animal is the Cat, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Prodal is ranked 302,376^th in the world and 56^th in Swabia for Highest Drug Use, scoring 15.88 on the Pineapple Fondness Rating.
