The Holy Empire of Parsininsa is a massive, safe nation, ruled by Pookie Bear with an even hand, and notable for its pith helmet sales, multi-spousal wedding ceremonies, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, hard-working population of 1.264 billion Parsininsans have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The large government juggles the competing demands of Education, Healthcare, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Silly City. The average income tax rate is 68.0%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Parsininsan economy, worth 126 trillion Cookies a year, is led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Retail, and Arms Manufacturing. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 99,943 Cookies, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.4 times as much as the poorest.

Five-year-olds who refuse to line up on command get gold stars, offering a builder a cup of tea is a legal minefield, buses are widely regarded as the safest way to travel, and crowded passenger trains are near-silent save for the soft tap of fingers on touchscreens. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Parsininsa's national animal is the penguin, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans, and its national religion is Christianity.

Parsininsa is ranked 52,871^st in the world and 286^th in Europe for Most Corrupt Governments, with 36.13 kickbacks per hour.
