The Democratic Republic of Progrea is a colossal, socially progressive nation, notable for its anti-smoking policies, keen interest in outer space, and absence of drug laws. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful population of 2.574 billion Progreans are free to do what they want with their own bodies, and vote for whomever they like in elections; if they go into business, however, they are regulated to within an inch of their lives.

The enormous, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Kosvan. The average income tax rate is 93.5%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Progrean economy, worth 347 trillion Dems a year, is quite specialized and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Beef-Based Agriculture. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 135,061 Dems, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

A suspicious number of male students have joined the Ladies' Wrestling League, foreign workers are flooding in as Dems flood out, welfare recipients are milking the government for all they've got, and exiles see that the line where the sky meets the sea is just clouds and rain. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Progrea's national animal is the Butterfly, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Progrea is ranked 7,978th in the world and 4th in Ensio for Most Eco-Friendly Governments, scoring 6,444.12 on the Dolphin Recycling Awareness Index.
