The State of Prospect Regent is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by the Governor with a fair hand, and remarkable for its barren, inhospitable landscape, absence of drug laws, and spontaneously combusting cars. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic population of 39.065 billion Prospect Regentians live in a state of perpetual fear, as a complete breakdown of social order has led to the rise of order through biker gangs.

The relatively small, liberal, pro-business, outspoken government is primarily concerned with Education, although Welfare, Law & Order, and Industry are also considered important, while Spirituality and Defense are ignored. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Capital Heights. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 9.8%.

The very strong Prospect Regentian economy, worth a remarkable 1,470 trillion betales a year, is quite specialized and led by the Retail industry, with significant contributions from Soda Sales, Automobile Manufacturing, and Arms Manufacturing. Average income is 37,638 betales, but there is a vast disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 255,896 per year while the poor average 2,022, a ratio of 126 to 1.

X-Files ratings have hit an all-time low, the government is avowedly atheist, Prospect Regent has designated Capital Heights as its capital city, and The Governor has just been declared ruler of Prospect Regent in an international press conference. Crime is a serious problem. Prospect Regent's national animal is the deer, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Prospect Regent is ranked 270,737^th in the world and 1^st in Beyond the Wall for Most Scientifically Advanced, scoring -12.25 on the Kurzweil Singularity Index.
