The Colony of Purashine is a titanic, safe nation, remarkable for its compulsory military service. The hard-working, democratic, devout population of 18.108 billion Purashineans 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 medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Spirituality, and Welfare. The average income tax rate is 20.3%.

The Purashinean economy, worth 975 trillion hinodejin crowns a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Trout Farming, Beef-Based Agriculture, and Pizza Delivery. Average income is 53,880 hinodejin crowns, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.6 times as much as the poorest.

Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Purashine's national animal is the crow, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Purashine is ranked 249,280^th in the world and 98^th in Emirates of Futurnia for Most Eco-Friendly Governments, scoring zero on the Dolphin Recycling Awareness Index.
