The Estado Libre y Soberano of Parapata is a colossal, socially progressive nation, ruled by Governor Catarina Quesada with an even hand, and renowned for its compulsory military service. The hard-working, devout population of 3.322 billion Parapatans 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 medium-sized government prioritizes Spirituality, with Welfare, Education, and Defense also on the agenda, while Environment and Social Policy aren't funded at all. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Ciudad de Parapata. The average income tax rate is 18.4%.

The Parapatan economy, worth 150 trillion sols a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Beef-Based Agriculture industry, with major contributions from Gambling, Book Publishing, and Retail. Average income is 45,391 sols, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 4.1 times as much as the poorest.
