The People's Republic of Prplea is a tiny, genial nation, notable for its state-planned economy, devotion to social welfare, and stringent health and safety legislation. The democratic, devout population of 7 million Prpleans are free to do what they want with their own bodies, and vote for whomever they like in elections; if they go into business, however, they are regulated to within an inch of their lives.

The large, liberal, socially-minded, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Welfare, Spirituality, and Education. The average income tax rate is 61.8%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The struggling Prplean economy, worth 112 billion Krønrs 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 Pizza Delivery industry, with significant contributions from Basket Weaving, Beef-Based Agriculture, and Arms Manufacturing. Average income is 16,036 Krønrs, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Prplea's national animal is the Ræðr, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Prplea is ranked 282,700^th in the world and 38^th in The General Committee of Prolya for Largest Manufacturing Sector, scoring 2,076.12 on the Gooback-Jerbs Productivity Index.
