The Republic of Parola is a tiny, cultured nation, renowned for its compulsory military service. The hard-nosed, hard-working, devout population of 12 million Parolans 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 tiny government is primarily concerned with Spirituality, with Defense, Law & Order, and Healthcare also on the agenda, while Social Policy and Industry are ignored. The average income tax rate is 9.2%.

The Parolan economy, worth 589 billion euro dollars a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Basket Weaving industry, with major contributions from Uranium Mining, Pizza Delivery, and Gambling. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 49,131 euro dollars, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.2 times as much as the poorest.

Crime, especially youth-related, is relatively low. Parola's national animal is the dove, which can occasionally be seen dodging aircraft in the nation's cities.

Parola is ranked 99,602^nd in the world and 3^rd in Languages for Largest Insurance Industry, scoring 2,093.5 on the Risk Expulsion Effectiveness Rating.
