The Pubs of Parkplace is a gargantuan, safe nation, renowned for its multi-spousal wedding ceremonies, daily referendums, and unlimited-speed roads. The hard-nosed, democratic population of 42.322 billion Parkplaceans enjoy extensive civil freedoms, particularly in social issues, while business tends to be more regulated.

The enormous, liberal government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Environment, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of ParrrrTay City. The average income tax rate is 81.4%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The powerhouse Parkplacean economy, worth a remarkable 3,716 trillion Daquireses a year, is extremely specialized and solely comprised of the Book Publishing industry. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 87,825 Daquireses, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The police have been known to wiretap confessional boxes, white strait-jackets are the new orange jumpsuits, eerie glow-in-the-dark cornfields give farmlands an uncanny appearance, and drugs containing the compound "oleum de serpens" are being sold to cancer patients. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Parkplace's national animal is the Cookie Monster, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Parkplace is ranked 265,720^th in the world and 115^th in Canada for Most Primitive, scoring -215.16 on the Scary Big Number Scale.
