The Prajasangha of Parvatapala is a mammoth, cultured nation, ruled by Prime Minister Rohan Samarasinghe with an even hand, and remarkable for its museums and concert halls, ubiquitous missile silos, and pith helmet sales. The hard-nosed, hard-working, devout population of 7.783 billion Palas 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, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Industry, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Mudupavra. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 48.8%.

The frighteningly efficient Pala economy, worth 932 trillion Pala rupees a year, is broadly diversified and dominated by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Retail, and Information Technology. Black market activity is notable. Average income is an impressive 119,784 Pala rupees, but there is an enormous disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 640,063 per year while the poor average 11,759, a ratio of 54.4 to 1.

Climate activists rejoice as electric sedans are replaced by diesel buses in gridlock, songwriters compete to see who can come up with the most blasphemous lyrics, annulments are on the rise as couples discover their ancestors were born in the same hospitals, and prison officers are bribed not to take bribes. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Parvatapala's national animal is the Pala tiger, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Samrudyana Budadarma.

Parvatapala is ranked 37,394^th in the world and 5^th in Insula Aurelica for Largest Black Market, with 36.0 trillion Standard Monetary Units.
