The Kingdom of Prydania is a colossal, cultured nation, ruled by King Tobias III Loðbrók with an even hand, and renowned for its compulsory military service, public floggings, and frequent executions. The hard-nosed, devout population of 8.406 billion Prydanians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The medium-sized, corrupt 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 71.7%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Prydanian economy, worth a remarkable 1,121 trillion Krosses 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 133,359 Krosses, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.0 times as much as the poorest.

The nation was recently voted "most likely to betray its allies", military officers are given medals for disobeying orders, the minority inevitably have their addenda vetoed, and King Tobias III Loðbrók's new political program is often mockingly called 'Capitalism with a Bigtopian face'. 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 Laurenist Messianism.

Prydania is ranked 398^th in the world and 125^th in The North Pacific for Most Influential, scoring 133,463 on the Soft Power Disbursement Rating.
