The Holy Confederation of Pryskiva is a massive, genial nation, ruled by Arker Rostson with an even hand, and remarkable for its keen interest in outer space, soft-spoken computers, and ubiquitous missile silos. The compassionate, devout population of 2.172 billion Pryskivans are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The large government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Environment. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Volzoborn City. The average income tax rate is 78.1%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Pryskivan economy, worth 248 trillion Arbøns 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 Tourism industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Book Publishing, and Basket Weaving. Average income is an impressive 114,444 Arbøns, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Euthanasia is legal, edutainment video games are taking Pryskiva's students to the next level, the ruling party has a devil of a time keeping order in the ranks, and goldfish bowls are three metres in diameter. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Pryskiva's national animal is the Bison, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Christianity.

Pryskiva is ranked 55,574^th in the world and 43^rd in Covenant Shores for Largest Furniture Restoration Industry, scoring 4,449.93 on the Spitz-Pollish Productivity Index.
