The Commonwealth of Second Provania is a colossal, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Prime Minister Denelda del Wapello with an even hand, and notable for its daily referendums, state-planned economy, and multi-spousal wedding ceremonies. The compassionate, cheerful population of 4.864 billion Provanians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The enormous, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Environment. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Puerto de La Santa Dolores. The average income tax rate is 97.0%.

The frighteningly efficient Provanian economy, worth 811 trillion Becks a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is quite specialized, is led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing, Tourism, and Basket Weaving. Average income is an impressive 166,822 Becks, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Political talk shows often have children as guests whenever they need commentary on world religions, the government forces Provanians to eat their vegetables, the Provanian government is the world's largest NGO, and voters are one of the nation's top imports. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Second Provania's national animal is the Common Black Hatcat, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Beckism.

Second Provania is ranked 243,414^th in the world and 3,518^th in The North Pacific for Largest Trout Fishing Sector, scoring -3.35 on the Nemo Depletion Efficiency Index.
