The Lunar Sway of Prospit is a colossal, cultured nation, ruled by The White Queen with an even hand, and remarkable for its museums and concert halls, infamous sell-swords, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate, hard-working, democratic population of 7.315 billion Prospitians 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 enormous, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Education, Law & Order, and Environment. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Kingdom of Light. The average income tax rate is 94.4%.

The frighteningly efficient Prospitian economy, worth 877 trillion Boondollars a year, is quite specialized and led by the Book Publishing industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Trout Farming, and Cheese Exports. Average income is an impressive 119,918 Boondollars, with the richest citizens earning 8.1 times as much as the poorest.

The right school tie opens more doors than the right qualification, adverts proclaim it has to be healthy if the Mornay uses hand-grated Gallopavian Gruyère, celebrity foodies are biting a huge chunk out of the government budget, and years of counter-terrorism planning are foiled by small details. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Prospit's national animal is the Prospit Dreamer, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Chess.

Prospit is ranked 164,338^th in the world and 8,808^th in The North Pacific for Lowest Overall Tax Burden, scoring -288.02 on the Hayek Index.
