The Federal Republic of Propwash is a gargantuan, efficient nation, renowned for its frequent executions, keen interest in outer space, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate, democratic population of 12.439 billion Propwashians enjoy a sensible mix of personal and economic freedoms, while the political process is open and the people's right to vote held sacrosanct.

The large, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Education, Industry, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Corraine. The average income tax rate is 73.7%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Propwashian economy, worth a remarkable 1,328 trillion Coles a year, is quite specialized and led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Arms Manufacturing, and Book Publishing. Black market activity is frequent. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 106,824 Coles, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.0 times as much as the poorest.

Any reference to a higher being is punished with public shaming, adverts depict men giving birth while cursing the women who got them into trouble, hit TV show 'The eXecution Factor' is a critical success, and foreign policy often involves bullwhips and leather. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Propwash's national animal is the Golden Eagle, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Propwash is ranked 41,829^th in the world and 1,168^th in The East Pacific for Most Advanced Defense Forces, scoring 3,423.68 on the Total War Preparedness Rating.
