The Dominion of Parody and Parrots is a gargantuan, socially progressive nation, remarkable for its barren, inhospitable landscape, complete lack of prisons, and spontaneously combusting cars. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic population of 28.53 billion Parody and Parrotsians live in a state of perpetual fear, as a complete breakdown of social order has led to the rise of order through biker gangs.

The relatively small, liberal, pro-business government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Education, and Social Policy. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 9.3%.

The thriving Parody and Parrotsian economy, worth a remarkable 1,379 trillion peanuts a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Retail industry, with major contributions from Gambling, Book Publishing, and Uranium Mining. Average income is 48,337 peanuts, but there is a large disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 186,655 per year while the poor average 8,597, a ratio of 21.7 to 1.

There are no minimum wage laws, the tenet of free speech is held dear, citizens are enjoying a recent large cut in taxes, and the latest Harry Potter book is a bestseller. Crime, especially youth-related, is a serious problem, perhaps because of the country's complete lack of prisons. Parody and Parrots's national animal is the parrot, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to toxic air pollution.

Parody and Parrots is ranked 200,590^th in the world and 26^th in Nasicournia for Most Scientifically Advanced, scoring 40.5 on the Kurzweil Singularity Index.
