The Socialist People's Republic of Pravitel is a massive, orderly nation, ruled by Supreme Leader James Petrov with an iron fist, and renowned for its parental licensing program, free-roaming dinosaurs, and punitive income tax rates. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless population of 1.268 billion Pravitelians are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."

The large, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Obraz City. The average income tax rate is 80.9%.

The frighteningly efficient Pravitelian economy, worth 188 trillion Dobras a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is fairly diversified, is led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Uranium Mining, and Retail. Average income is an impressive 148,926 Dobras, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.4 times as much as the poorest.

The nation is wading into dangerous waters, Harry Potter books are banned, pet owners must make a payment if their charges leave a deposit, and government-funded marriage counseling is showing very limited success. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Pravitel's national animal is the Pravitelian Lion, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its national religion is State Atheism.

Pravitel is ranked 74,019^th in the world and 150^th in Declansburg for Largest Welfare Programs, scoring 1,549.04 on the Safety Net Mesh Density Rating.
