The People's Republic of Camosun of Praal is a titanic, orderly nation, ruled by Livia Shields with an iron fist, and notable for its vat-grown people, frequent executions, and digital currency. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless population of 20.898 billion socialists are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."

The medium-sized, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government is primarily concerned with Defense, although Education, Industry, and Healthcare are also considered important, while Spirituality receives no funds. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Esquimalt. The average income tax rate is 46.0%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The powerhouse socialist economy, worth a remarkable 3,130 trillion caps a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is a large, well-organized, broadly diversified black market in Information Technology, Arms Manufacturing, Uranium Mining, and Woodchip Exports. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is an impressive 149,790 caps, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.1 times as much as the poorest.

Community-designed sword prostheses are becoming dangerously common, human sacrifice to the metaphorical altar of Mammon ensures national prosperity, diplomats shake hands with their right and hide a poison dagger in their left, and Livia Shields shot first. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, despite the fact that it is difficult to make it through a day without breaking one of the country's many laws. Praal's national animal is the brahmin, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Praal is ranked 243,398^th in the world and 28^th in The Fallout Wasteland for Most Cultured, scoring 63 on the Snufflebottom-Wiggendum Pentatonic Scale.
