The Democratic States of Palvat is a colossal, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by the minister of guidance with an even hand, and notable for its museums and concert halls, keen interest in outer space, and daily referendums. The compassionate, democratic, devout population of 5.85 billion Palvatians 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 Administration, Healthcare, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of blossom. The average income tax rate is 89.1%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Palvatian economy, worth 644 trillion florins a year, is quite specialized and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Book Publishing, Information Technology, and Basket Weaving. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 110,199 florins, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Factories grind to a halt every time there is an election, plain-clothes police officers follow Dàguó tourists everywhere they go, traumatised refugees have a full bedpan shoved into their hands along with their immigration papers, and the housing market has collapsed like an overbaked Brancalandian souffle. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Palvat's national animal is the dove, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Animism.

Palvat is ranked 266,669th in the world and 808th in 10000 Islands for Most Stationary, with 12.16646443568 days.
