The People's Sanctuary of Prplia is a mammoth, genial nation, ruled by Vøryður Ara'kah Fidr with a fair hand, and notable for its smutty television, infamous sell-swords, and compulsory military service. The compassionate, democratic population of 5.945 billion Prpliæ are free to do what they want with their own bodies, and vote for whomever they like in elections; if they go into business, however, they are regulated to within an inch of their lives.

The enormous, liberal, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Education, Welfare, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Týndir Hylgedómir. The average income tax rate is 77.8%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Prplai economy, worth 569 trillion Krønrs a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is highly specialized, is led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Information Technology and Book Publishing. Average income is 95,797 Krønrs, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

There have been reports of people marrying housepets, citizens can only enjoy the splendor of the natural world in designated 'Majesty Appreciation' zones, stuttering trypanophobes are doomed never to marry, and Vøryður Ara'kah Fidr's used car is held together by bumper stickers that support the opposition. Crime is totally unknown. Prplia's national animal is the Ræðr, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Secular Anjóþekja Animism.

Prplia is ranked 11,645^th in the world and 133^rd in The Leftist Assembly for Most Cultured, scoring 107 on the Snufflebottom-Wiggendum Pentatonic Scale.
