The Free Land of Puroni is a massive, cultured nation, notable for its museums and concert halls, absence of drug laws, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, democratic population of 3.135 billion Puronians are free to do what they want with their own bodies, and vote for whomever they like in elections; if they go into business, however, they are regulated to within an inch of their lives.

The enormous, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Healthcare, Education, and Welfare. The average income tax rate is 82.4%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The strong Puronian economy, worth 224 trillion Bitcoins a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is quite specialized, is led by the Book Publishing industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Tourism, and Basket Weaving. Average income is 71,702 Bitcoins, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Students are known to arrive at school in their pyjamas, weathermen are being arrested for attempting to read the future, third world countries are rich in "I Love Puroni City" t-shirts, and the official Puronian Phrase Book weighs as much as a small child. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Puroni's national animal is the Griffon, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Puroni is ranked 284,446^th in the world and 162^nd in Socialists for Most Patriotic, with 0.39 flags saluted per person per day.
