The Department of Pyrenees-Orientales is a gargantuan, safe nation, ruled by Hermeline Malherbe-Laurent with an even hand, and remarkable for its museums and concert halls, barren, inhospitable landscape, and frequent executions. The hard-working, devout population of 20.161 billion Roussillonaises are highly moralistic and fiercely conservative, in the sense that they tend to believe most things should be outlawed. People who have good jobs and work quietly at them are lauded; others are viewed with suspicion.

The relatively small, moralistic government juggles the competing demands of Spirituality, Defense, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Perpignan. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 20.2%.

The very strong Roussillonais economy, worth a remarkable 1,461 trillion francs a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Basket Weaving industry, with major contributions from Retail, Trout Farming, and Furniture Restoration. Average income is 72,512 francs, with the richest citizens earning 7.1 times as much as the poorest.

Biker gangs and fashionistas are converting to Violetism en masse, 4-year-olds are often found reminiscing about the 'good old days', out-of-work actors say they can't complain, and parachutes are considered optional with the newest line of jet fighters. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Pyrenees-Orientales's national animal is the lion, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its national religion is Roman Catholicism.

Pyrenees-Orientales is ranked 143,953^rd in the world and 56^th in Department Store for Most Authoritarian, with 734.66 milliStalins.
