The United People's Republics of Podria is a colossal, safe nation, ruled by Parliament of the Proles with a fair hand, and remarkable for its state-planned economy, sprawling nuclear power plants, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, democratic population of 5.397 billion Podrian are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The enormous, socially-minded government prioritizes Education, although Administration, Environment, and Healthcare are also considered important, while Spirituality is ignored. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Podridia. The average income tax rate is 91.5%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Podri economy, worth 608 trillion labour credits a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is quite specialized, is mostly made up of the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Tourism, and Beef-Based Agriculture. Average income is an impressive 112,805 labour credits, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Citizens sell their moldy bread as homemade penicillin, the alarmingly racist TV show 'Bigtopians Say the Darndest Things' is a hit, Parliament of the Proles is considering changing the Podri flag to one with more glitter, and lifeguards are stationed on the streets during rainstorms. Crime is totally unknown. Podria's national animal is the serpent, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Podria is ranked 21,611^th in the world and 113^th in The Leftist Assembly for Most Valuable International Artwork, with 9.58 Bank.
