The Socialist Republic of Prideburg is a massive, cultured nation, ruled by Comrade Svetol with an even hand, and notable for its pith helmet sales, state-planned economy, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate population of 3.671 billion Prideburgians enjoy extensive civil rights and enjoy a level of social equality free from the usual accompanying government corruption.
The large government juggles the competing demands of Education, Healthcare, and Defense. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Moscow. The average income tax rate is 69.5%, and even higher for the wealthy.
The powerhouse Prideburgian economy, worth 298 trillion rubles a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is a slick, highly efficient black market in Information Technology, Book Publishing, Woodchip Exports, and Door-to-door Insurance Sales. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is 81,257 rubles, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.
Religious epiphanies are often cited as a reason for high school drop-outs, gift baskets often contain working nukes, the words 'private' and 'enterprise' must never appear in the same sentence, and wars of expansion are described as "peacekeeping operations". Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Prideburg's national animal is the axolotl, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans, and its national religion is Secular Science.
Prideburg is ranked 284,910th in the world and 1,302nd in The Communist Bloc for Most Stationary, with 4.70833032 days.
