The Kingdom of Prydania is a colossal, orderly nation, ruled by King Tobias III with an iron fist, and notable for its pith helmet sales, ubiquitous missile silos, and frequent executions. The hard-nosed, cynical, devout population of 6.027 billion Prydanians are ruled with an iron fist by the dictatorship government, which ensures that no-one outside the party gets too rich. In their personal lives, however, citizens are relatively unoppressed; it remains to be seen whether this is because the government genuinely cares about its people, or if it hasn't gotten around to stamping out civil rights yet.

The medium-sized, corrupt, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Education, Law & Order, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Beaconsviði. The average income tax rate is 66.4%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Prydanian economy, worth 820 trillion Crosses a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Arms Manufacturing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 136,061 Crosses, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Consumption of cat memes has skyrocketed, birth rates have hit an all-time low, radio stations offer prizes to callers who can guess this month's most endangered species, and the automotive industry soaks up huge government handouts. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Prydania's national animal is the Stag, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Lutheran Messianic Church.

Prydania is ranked 9,161^st in the world and 456^th in The North Pacific for Highest Poor Incomes, with 98,680.47 Standard Monetary Units.
