The Socialist People's Republic of Prackin Kelew is a mammoth, efficient nation, ruled by The Leader with an even hand, and renowned for its aversion to nipples, state-planned economy, and compulsory vegetarianism. The compassionate, cheerful population of 7.835 billion Prackin Kelewians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The government — a sprawling, bureaucracy-choked, socially-minded morass — juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Environment. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Prackin Kelew City. The income tax rate is 100%.

The frighteningly efficient Prackin Kelewian economy, worth a remarkable 1,553 trillion deniers a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is extremely specialized, is mostly made up of the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology. Average income is an impressive 198,303 deniers, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Soldiers find that home gadgets and power tools are more effective as improvised weapons than the guns they've been issued, anti-government web sites are springing up, politicians "baring all" for the camera isn't always a figure of speech, and recent protests against birds flying too low have resulted in bloodshed. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Prackin Kelew's national animal is the swan, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Prackin Kelew is ranked 4,020^th in the world and 63^rd in the West Pacific for Most Cultured, scoring 179 on the Snufflebottom-Wiggendum Pentatonic Scale.
