The Republic of The Psittacines is a colossal, cultured nation, ruled by Mathieu Perroquet with an even hand, and notable for its sprawling nuclear power plants, complete lack of prisons, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate, cheerful population of 8.17 billion Psittacinesians 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 Environment. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of City of Aves. The average income tax rate is 81.2%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Psittacinesian economy, worth a remarkable 1,268 trillion Pellets a year, is quite specialized and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Information Technology and Book Publishing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 155,247 Pellets, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Stranded mountaineers can watch livestreamed footage of their rescues, citizens are exhausted from weekly general elections, crime is on the rise as DNA sampling has been all but outlawed, and returning vacationers often find that their property is now a construction site. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. The Psittacines's national animal is the Sun Parakeet, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Druidry.

The Psittacines is ranked 314,118^th in the world and 331^st in Conch Kingdom for Most Advanced Defense Forces, scoring -16.12 on the Total War Preparedness Rating.
