The Conglomerado Corporativo of Prybourne is a gargantuan, cultured nation, ruled by Grand Nagus Juliana de la Cruz with an even hand, and renowned for its frequent executions, infamous sell-swords, and ubiquitous missile silos. The hard-nosed, hard-working, devout population of 19.485 billion Prybourneans enjoy some of the most opulent lifestyles in the region, unless they are unemployed or working-class, in which case they are variously starving to death or crippled by easily preventable diseases.

The tiny, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Industry, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Opulencia. Income tax is unheard of.

The frighteningly efficient Prybournean economy, worth a remarkable 4,269 trillion Pentes a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is broadly diversified and led by the Retail industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Arms Manufacturing, and Soda Sales. Average income is an amazing 219,111 Pentes, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.2 times as much as the poorest.

Economists have been named Invertebrates of the Year, human sacrifice to the metaphorical altar of Mammon ensures national prosperity, weekly religious services often resemble campaign rallies, and the general public only knows their favorite politician's first name. Crime is totally unknown. Prybourne's national animal is the White Java Sparrow, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to toxic air pollution.

Prybourne is ranked 115,423rd in the world and 5,723rd in Osiris for Most Advanced Public Education, scoring 1,698.46 on the Edu-tellignce® Test Score.
