The Hallowed Nation of Prismaria is a massive, safe nation, ruled by The Empress of Light with an even hand, and renowned for its museums and concert halls, irreverence towards religion, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate population of 3.134 billion Prismarians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The enormous government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Education, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Irisia. The average income tax rate is 76.2%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The all-consuming Prismarian economy, worth 276 trillion Prismatic dollars a year, is quite specialized and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Book Publishing, Information Technology, and Furniture Restoration. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 88,377 Prismatic dollars, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Armed security details escort librarians to their homes, invasive drug testing is now performed at elementary school sports days, sniffer dogs check train passengers for body odour, and protests are legal but strictly supervised. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Prismaria's national animal is the Prismatic Lacewing, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Prismaria is ranked 22,827^th in the world and 831^st in The North Pacific for Lowest Crime Rates, with 87.51 law-abiding acts per hour.
