The Kingdom of Pyraania is a mammoth, safe nation, ruled by King Farisado Augustulus with an iron fist, and renowned for its rum-swilling pirates, museums and concert halls, and aversion to nipples. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical population of 6.134 billion Pyranians are ruled by a mostly-benevolent dictator, who grants the populace the freedom to live their own lives but watches carefully for anyone to slip up.

The large, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Swayambhunath. The average income tax rate is 74.9%.

The frighteningly efficient Pyraanian economy, worth 823 trillion Pyran Rupees a year, is led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Arms Manufacturing, and Book Publishing. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an impressive 134,282 Pyran Rupees, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.6 times as much as the poorest.

Residents of newly dried out bays live in fear of leaky dikes, the police have reaffirmed their tough stance on drugs, economists speak of trusting in the Tao of Free Market Capitalism, and protecting the land is holey work. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Pyraania's national animal is the Pyranian Monal, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Hinduism.

Pyraania is ranked 265,808^th in the world and 9,599^th in Balder for Fattest Citizens, with 6.83 Obesity Rate.
