The Free Land of Prometheians is a gargantuan, genial nation, ruled by The Chancellor with a fair hand, and notable for its multi-spousal wedding ceremonies, daily referendums, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate, hard-working, democratic population of 10.079 billion Prometheians hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.

The enormous, liberal, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Education, Welfare, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of City of Light. The average income tax rate is 95.9%.

The frighteningly efficient Prometheian economy, worth a remarkable 1,572 trillion banknotes a year, is highly specialized and mostly made up of the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing. Average income is an impressive 156,007 banknotes, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

In pet stores nationwide phoenixes are growing in popularity, new urban roads are threatening city parks, Prometheians's children are widely acknowledged as the most foul-mouthed in the region, and urban high-volume mailers now receive their mail via chauffeur-driven limousines. Crime is totally unknown. Prometheians's national animal is the phoenix, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Prometheians is ranked 21,673^rd in the world and 1,167^th in The North Pacific for Most Beautiful Environments, with 1,008.3 Pounds Of Wildlife Per Square Mile.
