“Heartland of Courtesy”

Overview • Policies • People • Government • Economy • Rank • Trend • Cards

The Commonwealth of Prolai is a very large, safe nation, renowned for its smutty television, irreverence towards religion, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate, devout population of 401 million Prolaians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Administration. The average income tax rate is 50.9%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The thriving Prolaian economy, worth 31.2 trillion Toastarian Bolivars a year, is led by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Uranium Mining, and Woodchip Exports. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 77,724 Toastarian Bolivars, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The letters L, G, and B must never be grouped together, morale within the seismologist community has hit rock bottom, urban graffiti is hand-calligraphed in perfectly kerned elegant fonts, and Prolai City University is said to be the modern-day Tower of Babel. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Prolai's national animal is the Prolai Jay, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Prolai is ranked 78,431^st in the world and 3^rd in The Toastic Assembly for Most Developed, scoring 67.68 on the Human Development Index.
