The Dominion of Paradisioisis is a very large, socially progressive nation, notable for its compulsory military service, suspicion of poets, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, cynical population of 272 million Paradisioisisians are ruled with an iron fist by the dictatorship government, which ensures that no-one outside the party gets too rich. In their personal lives, however, citizens are relatively unoppressed; it remains to be seen whether this is because the government genuinely cares about its people, or if it hasn't gotten around to stamping out civil rights yet.

The large, socially-minded, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Welfare, Education, and Law & Order. The average income tax rate is 50.3%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The sizeable but sluggish Paradisioisisian economy, worth 8.85 trillion Kottais a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is broadly diversified, is led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Door-to-door Insurance Sales, Woodchip Exports, and Uranium Mining. Average income is 32,536 Kottais, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.6 times as much as the poorest.

Mantis shrimp studies is academia's fastest-growing field, literally voiceless people are unable to protest when food and water are denied to them, droves of former desperados are applying to join the border police, and scavengers with burlap sacks and shovels skulk around graveyards. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Paradisioisis's national animal is the Korangu, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Paradisioisis is ranked 278,707^th in the world and 160^th in The Wellspring for Most Developed, scoring 49.85 on the Human Development Index.
