The United States of South Parter is a massive, socially progressive nation, ruled by Yame Kock M with a fair hand, and notable for its infamous sell-swords, pith helmet sales, and multi-spousal wedding ceremonies. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic population of 4.7 billion South Parterians enjoy a sensible mix of personal and economic freedoms, while the political process is open and the people's right to vote held sacrosanct.

The medium-sized, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Industry, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Parston. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 74.8%.

The frighteningly efficient South Parterian economy, worth a remarkable 1,317 trillion Paelous a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Retail industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, and Beef-Based Agriculture. Black market activity is extensive. Average income is an amazing 280,360 Paelous, with the richest citizens earning 9.7 times as much as the poorest.

The military will start wars with other nations on a lark, the jackhammer is considered a tool of artistic criticism, new mothers can pay for their weekly grocery shop with a bottle of breast milk, and droves of former desperados are applying to join the border police. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. South Parter's national animal is the emu, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

South Parter is ranked 21,185^th in the world and 724^th in The North Pacific for Most Advanced Public Education, scoring 7,811.06 on the Edu-tellignce® Test Score.
