The Righteous Prevail of Apriligrad is a huge, genial nation, renowned for its zero percent divorce rate, frequent executions, and absence of drug laws. The compassionate population of 907 million Primaverians 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 medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Education, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of The City of Bad Faith. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 41.8%.
The very strong Primaverian economy, worth 76.3 trillion Lumacks a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Trout Farming industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Arms Manufacturing, and Book Publishing. Black market activity is frequent. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 84,160 Lumacks, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 267,685 per year while the poor average 20,144, a ratio of 13.3 to 1.
Corporations claim the third ounce of any metal traded in a wicker-cone on the Sunday of a full moon as a charitable expense, the nation's diplomatic missives are now delivered via sniper rifle, EULAs remind customers that "Private Mode" is a browser setting rather than a promise, and Leader has just been declared ruler of Apriligrad in an international press conference. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Apriligrad's national animal is the Carrion Crow, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.
