The Republic of Parcia is a titanic, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by President Carlo with an even hand, and remarkable for its frequent executions, pith helmet sales, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate, humorless population of 21.874 billion Parcians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The enormous, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Education, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Rome. The average income tax rate is 90.4%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The thriving Parcian economy, worth a remarkable 2,128 trillion Parcian Credits a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Book Publishing, Information Technology, and Cheese Exports. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 97,286 Parcian Credits, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.2 times as much as the poorest.

Workers can choose whether they prefer offices that smell of pungent body odor or whale vomit, Bigtopian interference in domestic elections is always democratically sanctioned, toxic smog is dismissed as the populace just "letting off steam", and children have taken to using semaphore in light of the recent mobile phone ban. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Parcia's national animal is the Carpathian Wolf, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans.

Parcia is ranked 275,067^th in the world and 3^rd in Aeterna Publicae for Largest Insurance Industry, scoring -7.39 on the Risk Expulsion Effectiveness Rating.
