The Retiring of Prov is a titanic, cultured nation, ruled by Santa Claus with a fair hand, and remarkable for its rum-swilling pirates, ubiquitous missile silos, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, democratic population of 11.335 billion Provian Frenches are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The large, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Defense. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Yggdrassil. The average income tax rate is 98.1%.

The frighteningly efficient Provian economy, worth a remarkable 2,352 trillion candy canes a year, is quite specialized and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Book Publishing, and Arms Manufacturing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an amazing 207,584 candy canes, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Coffee cups have grown in size to accommodate the huge ingredients list, medical experts advise that those claiming to be medical experts are probably fraudsters, apples shaped like baguettes have become a strange new food fad, and windows in Yggdrassil don't have much of a view. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Prov's national animal is the bat, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Athyism.

Prov is ranked 4,988^th in the world and 37^th in Europeia for Highest Poor Incomes, with 164,438.34 Standard Monetary Units.
