The Hallowed Nation of Prismaria is a massive, safe nation, ruled by The Empress of Light with a fair hand, and remarkable for its keen interest in outer space, daily referendums, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, democratic population of 3.268 billion Prismarians love a good election, and the government gives them plenty of them. Universities tend to be full of students debating the merits of various civil and political rights, while businesses are tightly regulated and the wealthy viewed with suspicion.

The enormous government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Healthcare, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Irisia. The average income tax rate is 79.1%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The all-consuming Prismarian economy, worth 283 trillion Prismatic dollars a year, is quite specialized and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Book Publishing, and Furniture Restoration. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 86,788 Prismatic dollars, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The government has an entire department dedicated to staring at microscopes and writing down letters, giggling elementary school newspaper reporters want to know why The Empress of Light is a silly poophead, jail house rock has been replaced with jail house golden oldies, and a referendum must be held in order for any new law to be passed. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Prismaria's national animal is the Prismatic Lacewing, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Prismaria is ranked 6,044^th in the world and 287^th in The North Pacific for Most Cheerful Citizens, with 58.65 Percentage Of Water Glasses Perceived Half-Full.
