The Republic of Proserpino is a massive, efficient nation, ruled by consul Pseudolus with an even hand, and remarkable for its museums and concert halls, free-roaming dinosaurs, and irreverence towards religion. The compassionate, democratic population of 4.756 billion Proserpinoans are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The large, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Environment. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Roma. The average income tax rate is 92.1%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Proserpinoan economy, worth 660 trillion aureuses a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector is led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing, Tourism, and Basket Weaving. Average income is an impressive 138,807 aureuses, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

People are bored of easy crossword puzzles, a passport is literally priceless, the "war on terror" doesn't seem to be making Proserpinoans any less frightened, and a flying elephant and consul Pseudolus share the same nickname. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Proserpino's national animal is the Ouroboro, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Polytheismus.

Proserpino is ranked 7,915^th in the world and 364^th in The North Pacific for Lowest Crime Rates, with 105.75 law-abiding acts per hour.
