“Unity by Authoritarism”

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

The Absolutist Kingdom of Prolespia is a massive, socially progressive nation, ruled by The Supreme King Johnny Harrison with an iron fist, and remarkable for its rum-swilling pirates, enslaved workforce, and smutty television. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, devout population of 4.816 billion Prospians enjoy great individual freedoms in everything except elections, which, where they exist at all, are populist shams for a dictatorship government that has no intention of ever giving up power.

The large, corrupt, pro-business, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Industry, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Larredown. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 87.2%.

The frighteningly efficient Prolespian economy, worth 964 trillion Propius a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Retail, and Book Publishing. Black market activity is rampant. Average income is an amazing 200,262 Propius, with the richest citizens earning 7.3 times as much as the poorest.

Immigrant herding has become a national pastime, hundreds of sailors ride the good ship The Supreme King Johnny Harrison day after day, advertisers scramble to sponsor the broadcast of The Supreme King Johnny Harrison's most personal functions, and one does not simply walk into the tundra. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Prolespia's national animal is the Drärse, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Harrisonism.

Prolespia is ranked 206,906^th in the world and 9,097^th in Lazarus for Most Authoritarian, with 565.88 milliStalins.
