The Grand Duchy of Parklanaistan is a huge, safe nation, renowned for its barren, inhospitable landscape, daily referendums, and compulsory military service. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic population of 735 million Franks have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Education, Defense, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Paris. The average income tax rate is 22.6%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The strong Parklanaistanian economy, worth 50.7 trillion Francs a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Cheese Exports, Furniture Restoration, and Door-to-door Insurance Sales. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 68,995 Francs, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.4 times as much as the poorest.

The once prosperous capital is in utter decline, it is illegal to brush crumbs off your clothing outdoors, crocodile roadkill is smeared across the asphalt of the new Formula One track, and pristine wilderness has been trashed in the quest for cheaper oil. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Parklanaistan's national animal is the Gallic Rooster, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Parklanaistan is ranked 48,888^th in the world and 52^nd in Kantrias for Safest, scoring 103.02 on the Bubble-Rapp Safety Rating.
